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 study examines a Technology, Pedagogy, Content Knowledge (TPACK) training framework for pre- and in-service mathematics teachers that enables them to experience inquiry-based learning as learners in a dynamic geometry environment that serves as a mathematics laboratory. We investigate the effect of this experience on the teachers' TPACK,…

Teachers use a Learning Module to create their learning designs, emphasizing the activities they select with knowledge-based processes. This paper aims to develop a TPACK-based teacher's module that provides detailed instruction in the planning for the teaching-learning process, giving more focus on the teacher's ability to maneuver, navigate, and…

This study investigated in-service teachers' conceptualization of the pure imaginary number, within the Cartesian form, "a" + "ib" where "a" and "b" are real numbers and "i" is the imaginary unit. As part of a larger design-based research study, in which a professional development (PD) program was…

In the mathematical literature on analytical geometry, various notions of the conics' eccentricity correspond to different approaches to these curves. After making a comparative analysis of well-known textbooks to determine coincidences and differences between the various concepts of eccentricity, as well as how the authors explain the…

Despite the significance of incorporating technology into geometry instruction, many teachers still find it difficult to teach geometry using technology. This study employed a techno- pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) survey of 70 pre-service mathematics teachers (29 males, 41 females) from a public university. The goal was to determine which…

Over the past thirty years, research on teachers' mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) has developed and grown in popularity as an area of focus for improving mathematics teaching and students' learning. Many scholars have investigated types of knowledge teachers use when teaching and the relationship between teacher knowledge and student…

We conducted a multimedia survey experiment with a nationally representative sample (n = 405) of secondary geometry teachers. Participants were shown storyboard depictions of instructional episodes and asked to rate the appropriateness of the (hypothetical) teacher's actions using a Likert-like response format. We analyzed participants responses…

This study aims to investigate and compare mathematics teachers' knowledge of pedagogical content, knowledge of students' understanding and knowledge of instructional strategies, subcomponents of pedagogical content knowledge, student errors in the relationship between perimeter and areas in rectangles, squares, and parallelograms. 10…

In this paper, we analyse a grade 8 (age 13-14) Japanese problem-solving lesson involving angles associated with parallel lines, taught by a highly regarded, expert Japanese mathematics teacher. The focus of our observation was on how the teacher used carefully planned board work to support a rich and extensive plenary discussion (neriage) in…

For centuries, there has been a debate about the role of undergraduate education in society. Some have argued that universities should focus on practical skills and knowledge to prepare students for the workforce, while others have supported the idea that universities should prioritize providing a broad understanding of disciplinary knowledge and…

This paper presents research on the argumentation that preservice teachers perform when designing and teaching geometry. Argumentation is associated with speech acts carrying didactical intentions. This research study features of preservice teachers' argumentation when explaining geometry tasks both to peers, during preparation and discussion of…

The purpose of this work was to explore how elementary pre-service' teachers (PSTs) responded to a volume task that asked for a coordination of changes in one dimension with changes in volume. We carried out both written pre-assessments and follow-up interviews with seventeen PSTs, focused on exploring volume content knowledge. Our findings…

Studies that address preservice teachers' knowledge of area measurement emphasize their lack of knowledge and their tendency towards the use of formulas, without offering a body of knowledge that helps to address such difficulties. This study offers an approximation of the mathematical knowledge necessary for preservice teachers to solve area…

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is defined as the teacher knowledge needed for effective technology integration. This study aimed to investigate preservice elementary mathematics teachers' TPACK development. TPACK survey was administered to 33 preservice teachers (PSTs), and six of them were selected via maximum variation…
