Many institutions use placement tests as a method to assess students' readiness for college-level coursework. With the increased use of technology in testing, many institutions have transitioned placement test administration to an online format in an unproctored setting. While unproctored placement tests may provide financial and logistical…

This study aims to understand a middle school mathematics teacher's instruction and reflections on her experiences with supplementary curricular materials enriched with interactive simulations--PhET interactive simulations (sims) and sim-based materials--over two years. We conceptualize Linda's (pseudonym) teaching in terms of both thinking and…

We examine in-service high school teachers' journals to explore the emerging themes in a mathematics content course for their professional development. We use a sociocultural perspective and characterize journals as signifying teachers' communication and written discourses about their thinking and experiences in the course. We use applied thematic…

While the Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice are a focal point of K-12 mathematics education, there is limited research examining how future teachers' (e.g., undergraduate students, teacher candidates) develop their conceptions of these standards. We investigate how opportunities within a mathematics-focused bridge course within…

The aim of the research was to examine and evaluate how preservice mathematics teachers' use of manipulatives to teach mathematics. In the current research, one of the qualitative research methods, case study was used. The research was conducted with 21 preservice mathematics teachers. Ten instructional sessions with manipulatives were carried out…

The only purpose of assessment and evaluation activities should not be to grade students. On the contrary, it should determine the needs, misconceptions and readiness of students with assessment and evaluation activities and selection and placement processes are also carried out. For this reason, the qualifications of the assessment tools used,…

The purpose of the study was to investigate the experiences and perceptions of middle school students about the flipped classroom applications used in geometry lessons. The research was designed as a case study. Data were collected through field notes, focus group interviews, and semi-structured interviews. The sample consisted of 26 eighth-grade…

The aim of this study is to determine the level of compliance of the educational digital game designs developed by the form teachers for teaching mathematics with the determined criteria and to analyze the opinions of the classroom teachers on the educational digital game design process. Case study, one of the qualitative research designs, was…

The purpose of this study was to analyze the need to develop a teaching material needed in mathematics statistics lectures I. This study used a qualitative descriptive method oriented to the development of a product. The subjects of this study were fourth semester mathematics education students who were taking mathematics statistics course I and…

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…

This research was aimed to determine the level of knowledge, skills and attitude of pre-service Mathematics teachers in Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) towards higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) and whether the elements of HOTS were translated into the teaching courses. The research was also designed to analyze the relationship between…

The Higher-Order Thinking Skill Test Instrument on Quadratic Equations (HOTS-QE) was developed to measure the level of HOTS on the topic of quadratic equations among secondary school students. The HOTS-QE instrument consists of 17 structured subjective items divided into two smaller questions according to the three levels of HOTS, namely applying,…

While there is evidence that rehearsing instruction with groups of teachers can support their learning, whether this is the case in one-on-one coaching settings remains largely unexplored. In this exploratory selfstudy, I examined my coaching work with a cadre of mathematics teachers to determine whether and how rehearsing instruction in…

This study aims to produce a jumping task in the form of a student worksheet which is valid and practical. Design research in the form of development studies was chosen in this study which consist of preliminary stage and prototyping stage. Data were collected by walk through, test, questionnaire, and interview. Data were analyzed descriptively.…

This study evaluates the impact of distance learning in the teaching-learning process of mathematics in Higher Technical Professional courses. The results reveal that a positive evaluation of the functioning of the online support platform, as well as a positive attitude of teachers and students, has a positive impact on the evaluation of the…
