Abstract: This case study was designed to gather pilot information regarding pre-service teachers’ experiences in their second field placement experience. During the Spring and Fall 2020 semesters, two classes were asked to videotape their teaching using the software GoReact. A total of 55 students participated in this class activity of videotaping mini-lessons. The GoReact software can capture, store and analyze teaching videos. Results show that pre-service teachers found the software easy to use because there were few steps to follow. The software automatically compresses video. It is compatible with multiple file types, thus making the software very user-friendly.
