Preservice teachers often find it difficult to apply professional knowledge to their teaching practice. The ability to connect professional knowledge with one aspect of practice -- lesson planning -- was assessed with the Lesson Analysis and Plan Template in (N = 18) preservice teachers after one year of teacher preparation. Lesson plans were…

This study aims to analyze possible connections among the noticing skills of pre-service mathematics teachers, and specifically the skills of attending to students' thinking, interpreting students' mathematical understanding, and proposing teaching alternatives. We characterized these connections in terms of coherency, i.e., the extent to which…

The study investigated the impact of pedagogies of practice approach on pre-service teachers' professional noticing skills in perimeter and area measurement concepts. Thirty-two pre-service teachers engaged in a video-based module situated in pedagogies of practice framework, and the analysis of three pre-service teachers was provided for in-depth…

In this paper, we investigate the links between prospective elementary teachers' (PTs') ability to notice student mathematical thinking, their mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) and their ability to decompose learning goals into component conceptual parts (Morris et al., 2009). Previously, researchers have proposed theoretical connections…

This mixed methods study explored the development of elementary and middle school preservice teachers' (PSTs) learning to assess student thinking through analysis of students' written work. Six sections of the first mathematics content course for teaching implemented two writing assignments focused on analysis of student work aligned to the…

Addressing student conceptions is crucial in science education. Therefore, teachers should be able to notice and interpret situations, in which student conceptions are part of the complex classroom interactions. This study analyzes the skills known as professional vision using an interpretivist research paradigm and a sociocultural perspective.…

Background and Context: There is a need for teachers who are prepared to teach integrated CS/CT throughout the K-12 curriculum. Drawing on three vignettes of teacher instructional practice, we build on a growing body of literature around how teachers integrate CS/CT into their classrooms after attending CS/CT focused professional development.…

Holistic development is fostered when the education system allows learners to equip themselves with moral values, which is crucial in prospering a society. The current situation of moral disintegration among youth raises the importance of consolidation of moral values in education, and teachers play an important role in cultivating moral values…
