Teachers’ Mathematical Knowledge: Its Development and Use in Teaching
Our proposed research agenda centers on building the resources needed for high-quality mathematics instruction. Given that the quality of instruction depends fundamentally on what teachers do with students to develop their mathematical proficiency, and given that what teachers can do depends fundamentally on their knowledge of mathematics, we recommend that the first of the three strands of res...
متن کاملMathematical Knowledge for Teaching High School Geometry
This paper documents efforts to develop an instrument to measure mathematical knowledge for teaching high school geometry (MKT-G). We report on the process of developing and piloting questions that purported to measure various domains of MKT-G. Scores on the final set of items had no statistical relationship with total years of experience teaching, but all domain scores were found to have stati...
متن کاملPerspectives on Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching
Citizens’ possibilities to develop intuition and mathematical ideas appear in modern society through instrumentation and instrumentalization: Technology does not only shape the actions of the users but also the mathematical objects to be investigated are shaped by the users. The constructivist viewpoint states that both making of mathematics and teaching of mathematics must relate to this instr...
متن کاملAssessing Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching: The Role of Teaching Context
Assessments of mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT), which are often designed to measure specialized types of mathematical knowledge, typically include a representation of teaching practice in the assessment task. This analysis makes use of an existing, validated set of 10 assessment tasks to both describe and explore the function of the teaching contexts represented. We found that teachin...
متن کاملProfessional development for online university teaching
Almost every higher education institution is challenged to develop increasing numbers of staff to teach online or blended modes of learning. The process needs to be rapid, cost-effective and lead directly to practical outcomes. From our experience, we had little time, opportunity or the need to start from scratch, and we chose to adopt and adapt a course that was based on a well-rehearsed and r...
