This study used units coordination as a theoretical lens to investigate how whole number and fraction reasoning may be related for preservice teachers at the conclusion of a math methods class. The study contributes quantitative evidence that units coordination provides a common foundation for both mathematical knowledge for teaching whole number…

The present study extends recent advances developing and applying measures of mathematical content knowledge for teaching. Recent research has demonstrated that the Diagnosing Teachers' Multiplicative Reasoning Fractions survey provides information about distinct but related components necessary for reasoning in terms of quantities when solving…

Olanoff, Dana; Feldman, Ziv; Welder, Rachael M.; Tobias, Jennifer M.; Thanheiser, Eva; Hillen, Amy F. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
Prospective teachers (PTs) need opportunities to develop fraction number sense, yet little research has explicated how this development occurs. Our research team collaboratively designed a task targeted at helping PTs develop fraction number sense through an exploration of fraction comparison strategies. This paper focuses on developing one…

Fuller, Roberta Ann – 1996
The purpose of this study was to characterize and compare novice and experienced elementary teachers' pedagogical knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge of three major topics in mathematics: whole number operation, fractions, and geometry. The study participants were 26 preservice elementary teachers and 28 experienced kindergarten through…
