The authors describe two assignments for teacher candidates that required them to design and deliver lessons that focused on practicing two high-leverage practices utilizing Mursion, a mixed-reality simulation (MRS) software and platform. MRS sessions were delivered through Zoom video conferencing and were delivered asynchronously. Benefits, challenges, and limitations of using MRS in conjunction with Zoom in online courses were identified and discussed. Detailed logistics for planning, preparing, and executing MRS effectively were provided. The authors describe implications for remote learning as it related to teaching at an HSI located in one of the poorest areas of the U.S., with one of the most vulnerable populations.

The authors used the Instructional Coaching Model (Knight, 2007) to prepare students for the session and provide feedback immediately after the session. The participants were rated in several aspects of their ability to apply the high-leverage practice (HLP) and were asked to reflect on the process immediately after the TeachLivE session. Quantitative data was analyzed to assess change in the use of the HLP. Qualitative data, in turn, was examined in terms of how participants felt about their performance and what improvements they would like to make in the future.

An agency's choice of statistical methods for improving the reliability of released data for Web-based query systems is based upon a number of factors, including query system design (dynamic analysis vs preaggregated data and tables), population size, cell size, data use, and how data will be supplied to users. The article also describes those efforts that are necessary to reduce the risk of disclosure of an individual's protected health information.
