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…

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…

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…

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 narrative permeating higher education institutions globally is the intention to advance the quality of preservice mathematics teachers to gain better performance than mathematics school learners. In this article we report on a qualitative case study which explored the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) of preservice teachers (PST) (n = 20) at…

The authors explore the influence of instructional technologies on teachers' subject-matter knowledge as well as how this knowledge is mediated by context, experience, and beliefs about teaching, mathematics, and technology. This study examined how four pre-service middle grades mathematics teachers' (PSTs) beliefs about teaching, mathematics, and…

Mathematical terminology is sometimes created according to conventions that are not obvious to students who will use the term. When this is the case, investigating the choice of a name can reveal interesting and unforeseen connections among mathematical topics. In this study, we tasked prospective and practicing teachers to consider: What is…

Mathematical literacy stands as a critical skill imperative for navigating the complexities of the 21st century. Enhancing students' mathematical literacy necessitates comprehensive engagement across the educational landscape. This aligns with the "Guru Penggerak" (GP) initiative, established by the government to serve as educational…

One promising approach for connecting undergraduate content coursework to secondary teaching is using teacher-created representations of practice. Using these representations effectively requires seeing teachers' use of mathematical knowledge in and for teaching (MKT). We argue that Rowland's (2013) Knowledge Quartet for MKT, in particular, the…

This paper presents the findings of a convergent parallel mixed methods research that was carried out to explore the views of student-teachers on how geometry was taught and the confidence of those student-teachers in teaching geometry to secondary school learners when they will become professionally qualified. Respondents were randomly selected…

Some goals of mathematics teacher education include ensuring that pre-service teachers (PSTs) have strong content knowledge, the skill to anticipate and interpret student thinking, the ability to plan how to respond, and the ability to critically select resources for instruction. These goals are especially challenging for the topic of geometric…

The incorporation of subject-specific technologies in teaching and learning mathematics has been extensively investigated in different areas outside Uganda. The benefits are extensive, although the adoption of these technologies has been threatened by teachers needing help to apply them effectively for instruction. While this alone would aptly…

In a Swedish second semester course on Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry in mathematics education at Karlstad University, a bridging teaching strategy comprising elements from Mathematics, Didactics, History, Literature, and Technology was applied by using the concept of Narrative Didactics and Digital Interactive Mathematical Maps developed by…

This convergent mixed method study aimed at gaining insight into teachers' awareness of ethnomathematics approaches and the ethnomathematical practices that could be used in the teaching and learning of geometry. The data were gathered through questionnaires and focus group discussions. The findings showed that the in-service teachers had varying…
