The present study aimed to describe teachers' instructional flows when implementing a mathematical problem-posing task using scriptwriting technique. With matchsticks, a growing pattern that increases by a constant unit was created and presented to the teachers as a problem-posing situation. We analyzed the instructional flows in 50 scripts,…

This study explores the effectiveness of different problem-posing approaches in improving learning outcomes and problem-posing abilities among prospective mathematics teachers. This study employed a pre- and post-tests control group experimental design. The experimental group engaged in online and direct problem-posing, the comparison group used…

This qualitative exploratory case study focused on a Professional Development (PD) program for mathematics teachers in the public system, which is an underserved community of teachers in Chile. The study aimed to understand how the program addressed the challenges brought by the pandemic. Using semi-structured interviews and drawing from a…

In this study, we explored elementary school teachers' experiences working on open-ended mathematics tasks during a 10-day professional development (PD) workshop. Teachers engaged with the tasks daily in a session call Morning Math (MM). Thirty-two elementary teachers from three school districts in the USA participated in a 2-year professional…

AHP and Conjoint analysis methods are used to determine the priorities and preferences of groups or individuals in the decision-making process. These methods provide predictive results in many fields such as economics, politics, and environmental sciences. Multi-criteria decision-making methods have the potential to produce effective results in…

Many studies highlighted the importance of mathematical justification in problem-solving. This paper describes students' mathematical justifications for solving derivative problems collaboratively, especially before and after the use of technology was allowed. We asked two undergraduate students who were preservice mathematics teachers in a paired…

As a person obsessed, perhaps overly so, with preventing water damage, an ailing dishwasher led to a system whereby who did the dishes in our household became a matter of chance. What happened next, however, was besmirchment of my character from hockey teammates, close friends, and especially from a room full of future elementary school…

We contribute to the understanding of teacher noticing by focusing on what a teacher may notice in students' mathematical contributions in the context of problem-based lessons. Complementing approaches to research on noticing that focus on individual teachers' perceptual, cognitive, or situated skills, this conceptual article offers four…

The tradition of studies involving the combinatorial approach to recurring numerical sequences has accumulated a few decades of tradition, and several problems continue to attract the interest of mathematicians in several countries. This work specifically discusses the Fibonacci, Pell, and Jacobsthal sequences, focusing on Mersenne sequences. The…

This work is the result of a master's investigation in Brazil, which discusses the teaching of the parabola in the initial training of mathematics teachers. Our theoretical framework addresses the relationship between intuition and the dialectics of the theory of didactic situations, which supports the analysis of the results of this study Its…

Teacher perception is one of the most important factors determining classroom teaching practices. Multiple representations are used extensively in mathematics classrooms, especially in developing conceptual understanding. The data in this study, which aims to compare Turkish and US middle school mathematics teachers' perceptions of multiple…

In his work leading professional development, Peter Klosterman found that teachers specifically asked for help teaching optimisation more effectively. To address challenges students often experience solving optimisation problems, he explains useful pedagogical strategies to support the teaching of optimisation and student learning in this topic.

Incorporating open-ended real-world tasks enhances students' access to mathematical and real-life knowledge and maximizes learning experiences. This article examines how a secondary mathematics teacher used an open-ended problem on distributing pay raises to teach mathematical concepts and fairness to students. The teacher's actions exemplify…

This study aims to describe students' commognitive in solving algebraic problems. This research is a qualitative research with descriptive approach. The subjects of this research were fifth semester students of the mathematics education study program at the College of Taman Siswa Teacher Training and Education. The research subjects were 9…

Students' use of problem posing is an assessment tool for evaluating mathematical creativity, and it plays a substantial role in creative tasks. Integrating problem-posing tasks into a curriculum is beneficial for teaching and learning mathematics. The Photo-Math Project is an example of problem posing in terms of generating new problems. This…
