Ewing, Jim; Gresham, Gloria Jeanie; Dickey, Benjamin – Issues in the Undergraduate Mathematics Preparation of School Teachers, 2019
Engaging in productive struggle--grappling with challenging problems--is conducive to understanding mathematics. This paper examines five pre-service teachers as they learned to engage English language learners in productive struggle. The context of this descriptive case study was an elementary mathematics methods course in the Northeastern United…

Pre-Service Teachers' Perceptions of Barriers to Promoting Critical Thinking Skills in the Classroom
Khalid, Lulwa; Bucheerei, Jawaher; Issah, Mohammed – SAGE Open, 2021
Critical thinking is an important life skill that needs to be nurtured in young minds during the primary education years. This study explored pre-service teachers' perception of barriers to their efforts in promoting critical thinking skills in classrooms, and further explored possible solutions to overcome these perceived barriers. The study used…

Legette, Roy M.; Royo, Johanna – Research Studies in Music Education, 2021
The purpose of this case study was to examine pre-service music teachers' perceptions of peer feedback from two different vantage points (giving and receiving). Music education majors (N = 4) enrolled in a choral music teaching methods course were asked to develop a series of lessons over a semester, teach them to their peers, and provide oral and…

Casler-Failing, Shelli – Research in Learning Technology, 2021
A multiple case study was conducted to investigate how Lego robotics instruction incorporated into a middle grades mathematics methods course could inform pre-service teachers' (PSTs) TPACK through the lens of Social Constructivist Theory. The qualitative data analysis revealed that when instruction on Lego robotics technology is integrated into…

Hash, Phillip M. – Journal of Historical Research in Music Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to examine the life and work of Frank William Westhoff (1863-1938), a leader in music education during the progressive era (circa 1890s-1950s). Research questions focused on his work as a music supervisor, teacher educator, pedagogue, and textbook author. I also explored Westhoff's contributions to the profession and…

Arbaugh, Fran; Graysay, Duane; Freeburn, Ben; Konuk, Nursen – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
In recent decades, scholars of teacher education have suggested that teacher educators (TEs) should integrate the development of prospective teachers' (PTs') knowledge with their skills for enacting teaching, characterized in the literature as pedagogies of practice. One way to operationalize pedagogies of practice is through engaging PTs in…

Ducharme, Alden; Smith, Carmen Petrick; King, Barbara – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2022
Learning to facilitate whole-class mathematical discussions is a complex task. Teachers must become adept at using discourse moves to elicit and extend student thinking and move discussions towards a mathematical point. Practice-based mathematics methods courses give pre-service teachers opportunities to rehearse these moves in a controlled…

Cerezci, Bilge; Chase, Elizabeth – i.e.: inquiry in education, 2022
This study explores how past and present experiences with mathematics interact as teacher candidates engage in a series of critical inquiry and reflection opportunities embedded in a mathematics methods course. The study involved 28 teacher candidates enrolled in an undergraduate education program within a large university. Data were collected…

Costello, Gina R.; Davis, Kimberly R.; Crocco, Oliver S. – Innovative Higher Education, 2022
Due to time constraints and faculty resources, one-semester research methods courses, especially mixed methods, often do not result in meaningful student-produced work that contributes to scholarly literature. As publishing increasingly becomes expected for graduate students, instructors may seek ways to incorporate publishing opportunities into…

Holm, Jennifer; Kajander, Ann – Canadian Journal of Education, 2020
The research reported here is part of a larger study and examines the cases of two individuals who were initially unable to achieve the required 60% passing grade on a Mathematics for Teaching Exam at the end of their first enrolment in an intermediate-level mathematics methods course. The exam is a graduation requirement of the teacher education…

Fackler, Ayca K.; Sexton, Chelsea M. – Electronic Journal for Research in Science & Mathematics Education, 2020
During the spring semester of 2020, education shifted in unprecedented ways due to a global pandemic. Along with the K-12 and university courses that were thrust online, education methods courses, existing in a nexus--often dependent on both education systems to achieve all learning goals, also transitioned to remote learning. In a document…

Kartal, Ozgul; Morrissey, Susie; Popovic, Gorjana – The Mathematics Educator, 2020
According to the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE, 2017), teachers should first try to see problems through their students' eyes, anticipate, understand, and analyze students' varied ways of thinking, and respond appropriately. In this study, we engaged preservice teachers (PTs) in planning to implement problem-solving tasks;…
