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 aims to examine pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') model-based (MB) content knowledge (CK) and knowledge of students' understanding (KSU) of chemical bonds. The participants of the study consist of 229 senior pre service science teachers. The study is a case study from qualitative research designs. The data of the study were…

The provision of support has always been central to the role of the undergraduate dissertation (UD) supervisor, but little research has been done on its contextual determinants in web-facilitated contexts. Beyond the general recognition of the importance of institutional support for the development of supervisors' technological and pedagogical…

The aim of the study, which is designed based on survey model, is to measure whether the TPACK confidence makes a significant difference in terms of determined variables in the study. The research group consists of 201 teachers working as textbook authors in the textbook writing commissions in the 2022-2023 academic year. Data collected using…

The framework of professional noticing describes three components (attending, interpreting, and deciding) that allow teachers to better understand the thinking of their students. Via this method, teachers attend to their classroom by observing relevant cues from students, interpret these cues based on their knowledge of student development, and…

This paper describes and evaluates student teachers' virtual simulation training on teaching a controversial issue. In the fourth year of their program to become social science teachers at lower and upper secondary schools, 43 student teachers in Sweden conducted simulation teaching on conspiracy theories as an example of a controversial issue.…

This paper addresses the question of what role the historical discipline might play in informing the selection of substantive knowledge for school history curricula. In the process, it seeks to clarify the usefulness and limitations of Young's social realist theory of powerful knowledge in the case of school history. The paper proposes that…

Purpose: This paper describes how a pre-service teacher's knowledge and pedagogy changed as she documented her reflective practice while teaching arts-integrated lessons in a fifth-grade classroom during her pre-service teacher preparation program. The pre-service teacher spent three-months conducting an action research project in collaboration…

Research shows that college students are largely unaware of the impact of algorithms on their everyday lives. Also, most university students are not being taught about algorithms as part of the regular curriculum. This exploratory, qualitative study aimed to explore subject-matter experts' insights and perceptions of the knowledge components,…

While lengthy teacher training programs with reflection were beneficial for promoting teachers' teaching performance and perception of teaching, it is still unclear whether a short online training program can promote preservice teachers' in-depth thinking of their learning and teaching. This study focused on the instructional design of a short…

Purpose: Engineering graduates are expected to have certain attributes in addition to technical expertise that includes development in personal and interpersonal skills with societal concern. Pedagogical strategies have been continuously evolving to improve the graduate attributes. An efficient framework for blended learning that improves the…

While the distinction between academic disciplines and school subjects has received some attention, the question of which subject matter content knowledge (CK) teachers need as a foundation for initial teacher development has been raised. In science education, Teacher-related Science Content Knowledge (TerSCK) has been conceptualized to model the…

Teachers need technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) for teaching with technology, and its assessment is crucial for research and practice. Previous literature reviews on TPACK assessment were not specific to a content area (e.g., mathematics), although, by definition, the TPACK framework includes content-specific knowledge facets.…

The purposes of this research were to 1) study the components and indicators of teacher competency in Mechatronics and Robotics, 2) study the current states, desirable states, and the needs for teacher competency development in the Mechatronics and Robotics Department, 3) design and development of teacher competency-enhancing programs in…

This study examines how pre-service science teachers integrate technology into the design of learning activities, paying particular attention to types of technology integration, cognitive demand, scientific research skills, and TPACK. A mixed methods approach was used to analyze 49 learning activities designed by pre-service physics, chemistry,…
