Abstract: Video cases can serve as valuable instructional tools for preservice teachers by presenting examples of effective and ineffective student learning and pedagogical approaches. However, merely seeing video-cases without in-depth, interpretive analysis may not ensure learning. This study examined the effects of cognitive, metacognitive, combination, and affective questions, on preservice teachers' declarative knowledge of formative assessment, case- interpretation skills and ability to redesign formative assessments in similar and novel classroom contexts. All participants showed significant improvements from pretest to posttest on declarative knowledge and case-interpretation skills. A-priori planned contrasts revealed that the cognitive- questions group outperformed the metacognitive group on declarative knowledge whereas the metacognitive-questions group outperformed the cognitive group on video case-interpretation at posttest and transfer tasks. The results suggest practical implications for using specific scaffolding questions that are effective in improving conceptual knowledge and applied case-interpretation skills during contrasting video case analysis activities.
