This study, using a scriptwriting task, examines how 52 Czech pre-service mathematics teachers (PMTs) handled a situation in which a fictional pupil's incorrect reasoning resulted in a correct answer. The participants were asked to imagine and provide a script that reflects how the situation could evolve in response to the pupil's incorrect…

Proof facilitates conceptual and meaningful learning in mathematics education rather than rote memorization. In this study, incorrect theorems and proofs are used to assess secondary school pre-service mathematics teachers' proof assessing skills. Using the case study method, the study is conducted on preservice mathematics teachers studying at…

This study aims to describe students' commognitive in solving algebraic problems. This research is a qualitative research with descriptive approach. The subjects of this research were fifth semester students of the mathematics education study program at the College of Taman Siswa Teacher Training and Education. The research subjects were 9…

The issue of students' difficulties in solving context-based mathematics problems has been extensively investigated by numerous studies. However, limited study focus on how pre-service primary school teacher (PSPSTs) encounter difficulties in solving context-based fundamental mathematics problems. To fill this gap, this study aims to investigate…

The aim of this study is to examine the ability of pre-service mathematics teachers to detect errors made in solving questions about matrices. The study particularly focused on revealing the internalization of the teachings such as the meanings and relational dimensions of concepts and operations about matrix. The study was conducted with 26…

Error analysis is an instructional strategy that can assist teachers to identify learners' areas of weakness in mathematics and that can point to remediation of those errors. This article explores the errors learners exhibit when solving quadratic equations by completing the square using Newman's Error Analysis Model. A research study explored the…

The study aimed to establish an assessment model for mathematics teachers' knowledge of students' misconceptions in the "Space and Shape" domain, develop the testing tool, investigate and analyse the overall and differences in performance, and propose suggestions for improvement. The assessment model included content knowledge and…

Many mathematics education researchers agree that students struggle to understand the key concepts in linear algebra courses. The purpose of this study was to examine in-service teachers' errors and misconceptions in the area of linear combinations. The participants were 73 Zimbabwean mathematics teachers who were enrolled in an in-service…

Mathematics proficiency in the Philippines is a persistent concern, seen by many as a sign of an educational crisis. Teachers are responsible for improving learning outcomes in any discipline, including math. Thus, the study intended to conduct an error analysis of verbal problems among pre-service mathematics teachers. The researcher employed…

This study investigated the methods that pre-service teachers employed while finding volume using integration and the reasons why they utilized these methods (problems); the accuracy of their solutions was also analyzed in this study. Case study design, a qualitative research method, was used for this study. 45 sophomore pre-service teachers…

The present study aimed to identify the errors made by pre-service elementary mathematics teachers while investigating the convergence of infinite series. A qualitative exploratory case study design was used with a total of 43 undergraduate students. Data were obtained from a test administered in a paper-and-pencil form consisting of seven…

This study aims to determine how prospective middle school mathematics teachers respond to students' errors in the questions about the equal sign. This study utilizes case study method. In this case study, hypothetical scenarios, involving three common error types related to the equal sign, have been prepared by using the possible examples of…

This research analyzed the effect of digital storytelling (DST) on the development of pedagological content knowledge (PCK) of prospective secondary school mathematics teachers on mistakes made by students in algebra. The research applied sub-domains of PCK, the knowledge of content and students (KCS) and the knowledge of content and teaching…

This qualitative case study aimed to investigate prospective middle school mathematics teachers' instructional responses based on the students' correct and incorrect functional thinking within the context of pattern generalization. The data were collected from thirty-two prospective teachers through a written task and semi-structured interviews…

The aim of this study is to determine the mistakes made by secondary school mathematics teachers in the operation priority (Order-of-Operations) and to offer solutions to these problems. The research, which is conducted during 2018-2019 academic year in the central district of Elazig and is limited to fifteen mathematics teachers who had different…
