Binary operation is one of the main topics of undergraduate mathematics. A binary operation is also used as a foundation for other disciplines such as physics, chemistry and biology. This study aims to describe the conceptual knowledge level of pre-service mathematics teachers regarding binary operation. In order to achieve this, a test consisting…

The purpose of the research is to analyze the effect of STEM applications on mathematics pre-service teachers' mathematical literacy self-efficacy, technological pedagogical knowledge and mathematical thinking skills and their views on STEM education. This research has been carried out by 29 mathematics pre-service teachers who are schoolers at…

As the intersection between theory and practice, clinical experiences are the shared home through which school and university constituents examine effective pedagogies. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, our teacher preparation programs had built meaningful, face-to-face, partnership-based clinical experiences. The abrupt shift to virtual instruction…

This study was designed to delve into the impact of differentiated science education for gifted students on prospective classroom teachers in terms of some variables. A concurrent embedded research design from mixed research methodologies was employed in this study. The participants were 69 sophomore students studying in the Department of Primary…

This research aimed to investigate and compare teachers' conceptualizations of their students' and their own outcomes of our earlySTEM program at the K4 level in two distinct roles: practitioners only and practitioners and program developers jointly. The study group included 66 teachers, 26 of whom had actively contributed to the development of…

This research was informed by a constructivist approach to learning, with a focus on answering the research question: what skills can science teachers promote and encourage among students through designing and implementing problem-based learning in their classrooms? The research was carried out in a co-education secondary school in England and…

Science advocacy is a vital tool for ensuring improved and more beneficial science education, especially in resource-poor countries. This study assessed the impact of a train-the-trainer biology workshop (TTTBW) as a useful instrument for science advocacy and maximizing biology teacher training. Thirty-one biology teachers (30% male and 70%…

How pre-service teachers (PST) develop components of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) is an open question. Theoretically based on PCK and combined with student education in our outreach lab, we implemented a role-change approach in PST education. After theoretical and practical preparation, the PSTs change from the student role, to the tutor…

The importance of students being acquainted with algebraic ideas before secondary education has been revealed in the research literature. It is therefore essential that prospective elementary teachers (PTs) be prepared to instill an early algebra perspective in their teaching. However, PTs often show difficulties in algebra content knowledge,…

The purpose of this paper is to share a lecturer's viewpoint on using Wizer.me and Socrative applications as an innovative teaching method integrating TPACK and Social Learning Theory (SLT) at higher education. The applications were used to teach 44 undergraduate students who registered for Cross-Cultural Management course at Universiti Utara…

The study assessed the teaching competence of the secondary pre-service science teachers in terms of teaching knowledge, teaching skills, and attitude. The study made use of quantitative research approach (descriptive comparative research design). The validated instruments (Scale) was distributed to the respondents (n=45; Secondary Pre-service…

To achieve an effective Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), teachers should possess appropriate sustainability attitudes to transmit those values to their future students. In this article, a holistic educational intervention around the ecofeminist movement is described and its impact on the sustainability attitudes of 188 pre-service…

Teachers' diagnostic competence is fundamental for supporting students' individual learning processes and must be fostered in teacher education. Following a design-based research approach, a learning environment is developed focusing on preservice physics teachers' diagnostic competence in diagnosing students' conceptions. A core element of the…

Studies show that students and teachers frequently use the internet for learning and teaching, but that both lack the skills necessary to utilise it effectively. The authors designed an intervention to develop teachers' information search skills and improve the information problem-solving using the internet (IPS-I) tasks that they implement with…

The aim of this study was to investigate how to develop prospective chemistry teachers' TPACK and thus qualify them for the effective use of educational technology in their future chemistry teaching. For this purpose, we developed and evaluated a university seminar for the professional development of preservice chemistry teachers. We implemented…
