This case study investigated the development of prospective mathematics teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) in graphical data displays with (VM) within the context of a microteaching lesson study (MLS). This research investigated how five participants integrated technology and implemented a lesson plan aimed to teach…

The study investigates the knowledge profiles of elementary pre-service teachers (PST) concerning numbers and operations before their professional classroom practice. By validating an instrument through exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, it identifies and categorizes the PST' performance into distinct profiles based on the mathematical…

Teachers' perceptions of their teaching and learning activities are critical, especially given that the Malaysian preschool curriculum has undergone multiple revisions recently. The purpose of this study was to measure Malaysian teachers' perceptions on teaching early mathematics. The study aimed to assess teachers' perception of six constructs,…

This qualitative study aimed to identify the changes in a prospective' conceptions about the nature of mathematical tasks and pedagogy in video cases and to investigate the characteristics of the prospective' professional knowledge and views during task design/modification. The study used the mathematical task demand engagement process, which…

This paper describes and analyzes three cases to show the impact that curiosity-driven (CD) discourse based on self-video can have on the professional awareness and noticing skills of mathematics teachers and instructors of mathematics teachers. The findings indicate that CD discourse raises awareness of heretofore unnoticed events in the lesson,…

This multiple case study dissertation aimed to examine one of the domains of pedagogical content knowledge, knowledge of content and students, between different types of elementary coaches and between coach and their respective collaborating teachers. It also investigated the impact a coaches' background experiences have on the dynamic between…

This paper employs Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) as an analytical heuristic in exploring the internationally prevalent situation of teaching out-of-field. Drawing on interview transcripts, we use CHAT to frame the activity of a young teacher teaching mathematics out-of-field in a small rural K-12 school in Australia. We identify and…

There is a strong relationship between the quality of education, teachers' decisions and instructional actions, and knowledge. All of them have an important role outcome of the lesson and students' learning. The focus of this study was to discover how the process of students' learning or incapability of learning was affected by teaching practices.…

Teachers' knowledge of the subject matter is considered an important component of their expertise in teaching mathematics. Yet how teachers' understanding of one content area is related to other content areas has not been investigated in depth. We explored this question by investigating teachers' knowledge of two theoretically related areas: (1)…

In this theoretical paper, I review the history of research in educational psychology that inspired Shulman's notion of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and I critically examine interpretations of PCK reflected in prominent theoretical frameworks for mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT). I propose a theory of PCK--grounded in radical…

This study presents the validation of a Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) scale tailored explicitly for primary mathematics teachers in China. Recognizing the gap in context-specific TPACK assessment tools, the research aims to provide an instrument that aligns with the unique educational landscape of China. Utilizing established…

Describing and analyzing teaching practice has been a focus of researchers interested in the interaction and connections between teachers' content knowledge and their pedagogical knowledge. This study described the role of a teacher's mathematical content and pedagogical content knowledge in involving students in learning and solving Science,…

This paper compares and contrasts two approaches that are widely used in the English- and German-speaking discourse on mathematics teacher knowledge: 'mathematical knowledge for teaching' and 'mathematics didactic knowledge'. It is proposed that these constructs are based on distinct theoretical and conceptual positions and origins. Mathematical…

This article investigates the knowledge arising in mathematics teachers' planning of how to manage transitions within and beyond dynamic geometry environments in the topic of circle theorems. The notion of situated abstraction is used to elaborate the central TPACK construct within mathematics education and address previous criticisms of the…

This sequential explanatory mixed methods study explores elementary mathematics teachers' perceptions regarding their mathematical self-efficacy, how teachers describe their perceptions about their prior mathematical learning experiences and their impact on their instructional practice in the elementary mathematics classroom. In support of this…
