Knapp, Andrea K.; Barrett, Jeffrey E.; Moore, Cynthia J. – School Science and Mathematics, 2016
This study investigated the ways in which four middle grades teachers developed mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) geometry as they implemented dynamic geometry software in their classrooms with the assistance of a coach. Teachers developed various components of MKT by observing coaches teach, by dynamic discourse with students, which is…

Son, Ji-Won; Sinclair, Nathalie – School Science and Mathematics, 2010
Recognizing and responding to students' thinking is essential in teaching mathematics, especially when students provide incorrect solutions. This study examined, through a teaching scenario task, elementary preservice teachers' interpretations of and responses to a student's work on a task involving reflective symmetry. Findings revealed that a…
