Cover Story: Eliciting Learner Knowledge (ELK) is a seven-minute, chat-based virtual roleplay between a PST playing a “teacher” and a PST playing a “student” where the goal is for the teacher to find out what the student knows about a topic. ELK is designed to be a practice space where preservice and in-service teachers can learn strategies for effectively eliciting their students’ knowledge. The results of this study suggest that PSTs gain experience in practicing talk moves and having empathy for students’ perspectives by using ELK. View this paper
