Derek Pope – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Mathematics is often taught by lecturing students on how to perform procedures, but it could be taught in ways that promote active student engagement and develop deep conceptual understanding. Research supports the latter approach as better for students' retention, engagement, and success with learning mathematics. An important time to influence…

Goyer, Alysia – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Algebraic thinking is an essential component of the K-12 mathematics curriculum. Early algebra focuses on the overall numeric structure (Kaput, 2008; Kieran,2018; Kieran et al., 2016) which focuses on the noticing of arithmetic patterns leading to generalizations supported by justification, reasoning and justifications (Blanton, 2008; Blanton et…

Dawn Teuscher; Tenille Cannon; Sharon Christensen – School Science and Mathematics, 2023
The Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators recommends that well-prepared beginning mathematics teachers apply their understanding of mathematics, curriculum, pedagogy, student learners, and social constructions to facilitate mathematics learning for all students. Using the context of a secondary methods course, where prospective mathematics…

Hine, Gregory; Herbert, Sandra – Issues in Educational Research, 2022
Teacher education programs are pivotal in the professional preparation and formation of pre-service secondary mathematics teachers (PSMTs), but there appears to be a lack of understanding of how best to prepare PSMTs for the profession. The purpose of this study was to examine and monitor changes over time in PSMTs' views about approaches to…

Enrique Galindo; Mehmet Fatih Öçal; Selim Yavuz – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Secondary mathematics preservice teachers enrolled in a methods class at a large Midwestern University were supported to develop their TPACK knowledge. Instructional tasks included engaging with explorations using technology to support reasoning and sense making, creating entries for a technology portfolio, studying theoretical constructs about…

Saclarides, Evthokia Stephanie; Garner, Brette; Krause, Gladys; Bertolone-Smith, Claudia; Munson, Jen – Mathematics Teacher Educator, 2022
Learning to teach mathematics is a complex endeavor, requiring sustained focus and time. Yet time is especially scarce in elementary teacher education programs, where preservice teachers (PSTs) learn all content areas. Through a collaborative self-study, five teacher educators identified three time-related tensions in elementary mathematics…

Casler-Failing, Shelli – Research in Learning Technology, 2021
A multiple case study was conducted to investigate how Lego robotics instruction incorporated into a middle grades mathematics methods course could inform pre-service teachers' (PSTs) TPACK through the lens of Social Constructivist Theory. The qualitative data analysis revealed that when instruction on Lego robotics technology is integrated into…

Arbaugh, Fran; Graysay, Duane; Freeburn, Ben; Konuk, Nursen – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
In recent decades, scholars of teacher education have suggested that teacher educators (TEs) should integrate the development of prospective teachers' (PTs') knowledge with their skills for enacting teaching, characterized in the literature as pedagogies of practice. One way to operationalize pedagogies of practice is through engaging PTs in…

Johnson, Todd M.; Byrd, Kelly O.; Allison, Elizabeth R. – School Science and Mathematics, 2021
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the impact of co-taught integrated STEM methods instruction on preservice elementary teachers' self-efficacy for teaching science and mathematics within an integrated STEM framework. Two instructional methods courses (Elementary Mathematics Methods and Elementary Science Methods) were redesigned to…

Jong, Cindy; Schack, Edna O.; Fisher, Molly H.; Thomas, Jonathan; Dueber, David – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2021
This study examined the intersections of preservice elementary teachers' (PSET) professional noticing (PN) of children's mathematical thinking, two mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) domains: mathematics content knowledge (MCK) and mathematics pedagogical content knowledge (MPCK), and two affective domains: attitudes and dispositions toward…

Jon D. Davis; Fnu Pujiyanto – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
This study examined the effect of a teaching mathematics with technology course on preservice elementary teachers' (PSETs) and preservice secondary mathematics teachers' (PSTs) beliefs about teaching with technology and beliefs about the nature of learning and teaching mathematics. All preservice teachers enrolled in the methods course engaged in…

Thomas, Casedy A. – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2021
This multi-case study examines how three elementary mathematics methods instructors, in the same teacher education program, provide their prospective teachers with learning opportunities. Qualitative data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and artifacts. The findings suggest that the instructors' beliefs associated with…

The Richness of Mathematics Noticed by Teacher Candidates in a Professional Development School Model
Gallagher, Melissa A.; King, Lesley A.; Suh, Jennifer M.; Hargrove, Dori L. – School-University Partnerships, 2019
This study examined how 16 female teacher candidates in two sections of a math methods course, which implemented high leverage professional development school practices, described the aspects of richness of mathematics (i.e., linking between representations, explanations, mathematical sense-making, multiple procedures or solution methods, patterns…
