The purpose of this article is to provide (1) declarative knowledge on metacognition, (2) procedural knowledge on how to design metacognitive learning experiences for both teacher candidates and their students, and (3) strategic/conditional knowledge on when to use these metacognitive strategies. Educators can teach, develop, and support…

Mathematical modeling is a critical component of the current K-12 mathematics, science, and technology and engineering (T&E) educational standards in the United States. However, mathematical modeling is often overlooked or underemphasized in integrative STEM lessons. This could be attributed to teachers' limited content and pedagogical…

Purpose: To review past research on teaching methods courses with preservice physical education teachers and preservice elementary classroom teachers. Method: This study was guided by the "2017 National Standards for Initial Physical Education Teacher Education." A thorough literature search was conducted using online databases, and a…

Technology has normalised education and promoted teaching and learning activities. However, not all teachers effectively integrate technology into their instruction. Prior studies indicate that teacher knowledge impacts such integration. This study examines technology use among teachers teaching Chinese as a foreign language in Australian…

Teachers' practical knowledge is closely related to teaching practice. The purpose of this research was to develop an instrument for assessing upper-secondary school science teachers' perceived practical knowledge about practical work. The development of this instrument was based on five components in the conceptual framework of PCK about…

Mathematicians teaching at the university level have a deep understanding and appreciation for the mathematics that they teach. However, they rarely receive much formal training in teaching. Thus, university mathematicians must rely on their mathematical understandings and personally developed ideas of teaching to guide their decision-making.…

Teachers in K-12 education are increasingly using technology in their courses. However, teachers may struggle to implement technology effectively in their specific subject areas. Existing research demonstrates that there was a need to better support in-service science teachers' technological content knowledge. Accordingly, the purpose of this…

For pre-service teachers to develop learners' number sense, they need have a broad repertoire of non-standard calculation strategies. In this paper, we present an analysis of selected research literature from 2000 to 2022 on pre-service teachers' mental mathematics published in peer-reviewed journals. The results of this brief review indicate that…

The aim of the study was to understand preservice mathematics teachers' improvement of their knowledge of mathematical modeling and knowledge for teaching modeling postintervention. A total of 57 preservice mathematics teachers voluntarily participated in the study, which lasted for a period of five weeks. Data sources included three separate…

Reading, at its core, is a basic yet critical way to undertake learning and growth. This paper shares a professional learning and development initiative for science educators, which was underpinned by the popularity and premise of the reading group. In moving from simply being a vehicle for targeted discussion, the reading group facilitators…

It is of great importance to examine the level of science teaching self-efficacy (SE), which is related to technological developments in primary school teacher education. It is seen that this subject is not addressed in the context of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK) and visual metaphors. The purpose of this research was to…

Shulman (1986) conceptualized pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) at the intersection of content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge. In this paper, I re-explore the intersection of content--in our case, mathematics--and pedagogy, not in terms of domains of knowledge, but in terms of domains of practice. I conceptualize, describe, and exemplify…

Topic-specific pedagogical content knowledge (TSPCK) enables teachers to transform pedagogically difficult content for specific science topics into forms more easily understood by learners. In science teaching, there is evidence pointing to poor learner performance in key chemistry topics such as stoichiometry. This paper reports on the changes in…

Graduate education caters advanced learning opportunities among its clientele, and one of the responsibilities is to ensure that the program contributes significantly to the field. This study explored on the contribution and relevance of the Master of Education major in Mathematics Program in the career of the mathematics educators. It also…

This paper analyses how pre-service teachers approach the notion of the infinite limit of a sequence from two perspectives: Specialized Content Knowledge and Advanced Mathematical Thinking. The aim of this study is to identify the difficulties associated with this notion and to classify them. In order to achieve this, an exploratory qualitative…
