This study aims to explore teacher noticing differences of the sampled US and Chinese elementary teachers from cross-cultural mathematics videos. A total of 34 expert teachers commented on 25 video clips online. We coded what and how teachers noticed from the videos both quantitatively and qualitatively. Findings reveal teachers' strong interests…

This study aimed to characterise preservice teachers' (PSTs') noticing in a mathematics classroom and its influence on their lesson modification. Written narratives on video-taped lesson observation were analysed qualitatively in two components, attending and reasoning. The findings indicate that PSTs' initial noticing focused on general…

The importance of constructing mathematical arguments and critiquing the reasoning of others has been emphasized as a key component for deep mathematical understanding. As a result, acknowledging proof as an essential tool to comprehend mathematics at all grade levels has been suggested by many researchers as well as reform initiatives. To do so,…

Video clubs have been used for more than a decade to support teachers' professional noticing. Accordingly, numerous studies have evaluated video use as a tool for professional learning, concentrating on aspects such as video selection, club meetings, and teacher interviews. Yet, few researchers have considered noticing as a result of repeated…

Use of video as a representation of practice in teacher education is commonplace. The current study explored the use of a new format (360 video) in the context of preservice teachers' professional noticing. Findings suggest that preservice teachers viewing 360 videos attended to more student actions than their peers viewing standard video. In…

Although it is a relatively new innovation, 360 videos have gained commercial and public popularity. Given their novelty, there is a relative dearth of studies on their effectiveness. Most of the existing research is published as technical articles dealing with standards and specifications, as theoretical pieces promoting the potential value, or…

This study investigates elementary pre-service mathematics teachers' noticing in a video-based activity within the context of a mathematics teaching methods course. To this end, we analyzed what and how pre-service mathematics teachers noticed in the Public Release Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) videos. Data obtained…

For years, teacher education programs have focused considerable effort on teacher knowledge and how to develop the types of knowledge that matter in teacher education candidates. Meanwhile, candidate dispositions for teaching have received little attention, particularly in mathematics courses for candidates. As developers and practitioners of a…

Mathematics classroom interaction has often been described as an important context for involving all students. However, this article shows that teacher-student-interaction is still not really in the focus of teachers' attention. Based on classroom video studies, some authors hypothesize that the implicitness of establishing norms and practices is,…

Teachers and mathematics teacher education scholars have identified field experiences and quality mentoring as influential components of math teacher preparation and development. Yet, quality mentoring is a complex and demanding practice. Providing educative feedback to novices, particularly that which encourages reflection versus evaluation, can…

In this article we report on a study of children's attention to numerical content in picture books. Specific research questions are 1) how the content in a designed picture book directs children's attention to numbers, and 2) what kind of numerical reasoning the book reading entails. To answer these questions, we conducted an educational design…

We adopt five observation categories, namely classroom management, classroom environment, communication, mathematical content and tasks, to analyse four in-service secondary mathematics teachers' noticing upon watching video episodes showing an actual mathematics lesson that implemented 3D Printing Pens for teaching and learning shape and space.…

The research study examined the ways participants analyzed students' mathematical thinking in a massive online open course focused on teaching mathematics with technology. Across units, participants' posts showed increased attention to student thinking and less focus on issues related to technology. [For the complete proceedings, see ED606531.]

Digital video technology has been increasingly employed to investigate teacher professional noticing. While extensive research has been undertaken to explore the specialised knowledge base underlying teacher professional noticing, there is a need to more closely examine the methodological consequences of video-based approaches for understanding…

This study proposes a framework for investigating how preservice mathematics teachers notice students' reasoning about comparing distributions, including preservice teachers' attention to statistical elements used by students, interpretation of students' understanding, and decision about how to respond to students' statistical reasoning. The…
