Extant research has demonstrated that problem-posing and problem-solving mutually affect one another. However, the exact nature and extent of this relationship requires a detailed elaboration. This is especially true when adidactical problem-posing arises within a problem-solving context. In this study, we analyze the scripting journey used by two…

This study aims to evaluate the mediating role of career futures in the relationship between prospective teachers' career adaptability and career calling. This aim was carried out according to the quantitative research patterns relational model. The sample of this study consists of 225 prospective teachers between 18 and 39 years of age ([x-bar]=…

Bramlett and Drake (2013) suggest that the ability of teachers to teach proof is crucial for students to learn and develop formal and informal proofs. Teachers need to be involved in the process of proving and have a firm understanding of the critical role of proofs in order to effectively engage their students in proving activities. It is…

Fraction proficiency continues to be a challenge for many learners of mathematics. Valid and reliable methods for assessing fraction understanding are critical tools in the pursuit of meeting this challenge. Written assessments have been widely used with K-12 students to assess fraction understanding, including units coordination. However, using…

We are three mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) at a Hispanic serving institution that predominantly teach mathematics education courses for elementary and secondary teacher candidates (TCs). In this paper, we present findings from a collaborative self-study in which we used dimensions of the Rehumanizing Mathematics (RM) framework (Gutiérrez,…

Using a holistic biliteracies framework, this longitudinal comparative case study explores how two racioinguistically marginalized BPSTs (one heritage Spanish/English bilingual and one initially Spanish-dominant Mexican national) grew in their understanding of biliteracies development and their enactment of biliteracies pedagogies in the beginning…

Mobile technology is a promising area of research post COVID-19 and helps the realisation of education 4.0 The purpose of this paper is to conceptualise mobile learning in Education 4.0 paradigm in the South African context. This descriptive study used a questionnaire made in a google form and distributed amongst pre-service teachers at a faculty…

We explored primary pre-service teachers' beliefs about challenging mathematical tasks and the role they perceived their initial teacher education played in influencing those aspects. Fifty-seven pre-service teachers completed an online questionnaire, and four participants were individually interviewed. Results showed that most participants…

Reasoning about fraction magnitude is an important topic in elementary mathematics because it lays the foundations for meaningful reasoning about fraction operations. Much of the research literature has reported deficits in preservice elementary teachers' (PSTs) knowledge of fractions and has given little attention to the productive resources that…

Whole-class discussion of open mathematics tasks is an instructional practice K-12 mathematics educators report has the potential to engage all learners. Because this practice has not been extensively and systematically researched, this study aims to describe and analyze the engagement and experience of learners in open mathematics tasks. Drawing…

Researchers have reported that preservice mathematics teachers' (PMTs') conceptions for radian angle measure are dominated by conceptions of degrees, memorization, and calculational strategies, and are always expressed in terms on [pi]. In this report, I unpack the mathematical meanings of a PMT, Henry (pseudonym), as he engaged in three…

This presentation covers the importance of clinical experiences in teacher preparation. It also includes a brief description of our innovative approach to clinical practice at a public comprehensive, state university in Southeast. Findings of our research endeavors indicate that majority of our teacher candidates agree or strongly agree that…

In pedagogy, it is often emphasized that we need to go beyond the traditional level of teaching and in addition to professional knowledge to integrate skills that support the acquisition of 21st century skills such as problem-solving, creativity and critical thinking, or social skills and emotional intelligence, which are highlighted in the labor…

This design research study describes how one mentor teacher-teacher candidate dyad co-learned to promote student engagement and participation through using a "Collaborative Learning Structure" (CLS) tool that we are developing. We share how the dyad used the CLS, with support from a professional development facilitator and fellow…

Preservice teachers (PSTs) are expected to possess a relational understanding (i.e., knowing how to do and why) of mathematics for ambitious instruction. This study aimed to shed some light on the possibilities of supporting PSTs' development of relational understanding of fractions through engaging them in writing collective argumentation.…
