Reichert, Janice Teresinha; Barone, Dante Augusto Couto; Kist, Milton – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
The article highlights and discusses aspects about the initial perceptions of Computational Thinking of a group of Mathematics teachers in K-12, estimates the contributions of a continuing education course on the subject and addresses possible changes in the participants' way of teaching. The case study was conducted through continuing education…

Ediger, Marlow – College Student Journal, 2009
The debate has gone on for some time in terms of which is more salient for the teacher to be well versed in, mathematical content versus methods and approaches in teaching. Both are salient. They cannot be separated from each other. The mathematics teacher must indeed have broad, in-depth knowledge of subject matter as well as in teaching and…

Hill, Heather; Ball, Deborah Loewenberg – Phi Delta Kappan, 2009
Mathematics teachers need specialized math knowledge that is different from the knowledge needed by mathematicians, including the mathematical understanding involved in posing questions, interpreting students' answers, providing explanations, and using representations. Based on the authors' work involving over 300 teachers, they have found that…

Speer, Natasha M.; Wagner, Joseph F. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2009
Using case study analysis and a cognitive theoretical orientation, we examine elements of knowledge for teaching needed by a mathematician to orchestrate whole-class discussions in an undergraduate mathematics classroom. The instructor, an experienced teacher and mathematics researcher, used an inquiry-oriented curriculum to teach a differential…

Kurz, Terri L.; Middleton, James A. – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2006
This study examined the structure of two preservice teachers' understandings of educational software in mathematics using repertory grid techniques. Specifically, the study focused on how teacher educators can enable preservice teachers to discern the features of mathematics software, and develop pedagogical goals that reflect the affordances and…
