The relevance of the selected research topic arises from the numerous challenges encountered in the education of prospective mathematics teachers. The purpose of this research is to substantiate the advisability of using the case technology in the formation of information competence for the future teachers of mathematics in the process of their…

COVID-19 has caused unprecedented disruption to mathematics teacher education worldwide. This paper is anchored in our learnings from the experiences of teacher educators at four major universities from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations as they dealt with changes in their programs' delivery triggered by the pandemic, and raises challenges…

Although research in mathematics education has yielded a great number of results on mathematics teachers' beliefs in recent decades, it is still an open question as to whether these teachers' beliefs are stable or not. However, since mathematics teachers' beliefs are perceived to be the default of their classroom practices, it is important to gain…

The aim of this study is to determine the level of technology literacy and proactive personality of secondary school mathematics teachers, the relationship between technology literacy and proactive personalities, and how much of the proactive personality is explained by the technology literacy, according to the perceptions of secondary school…

The purpose of this study was to deploy digital technology in ways that would help mathematics teachers in a remote rural Taiwanese middle school construct a differentiated classroom aligned with students' needs. We attempted to develop seventh-grade mathematics course modules that could meet quality educational requirements and equal…

Florida is experiencing a shortage of high-quality mathematics teachers. According to the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE), there was a critical shortage of K-12 mathematics teachers (among several other subject areas) at the start of the 2022-2023 school year (FLDOE, 2022). In this report, the authors present selected findings from the…

In this article, we describe rehearsals designed for use in professional development (PD) with secondary mathematics teachers to support them in reimagining and refining their practice. We detail a theoretical framework for learning in PD that informs our rehearsal design. We then share evidence of secondary mathematics teachers' improvements in…

Teachers' conceptual knowledge contributes to the quality of teaching and learning of mathematics. The purpose of this study was to explore how mathematics teachers show understanding of soft skills and if they are aware of the methods that incorporate them in teaching and learning of mathematics. The sample consisted of 91 mathematics teachers,…

Teachers' academic and professional competencies significantly improve the quality of their learning. An ongoing process is needed to support and develop their quality. This study developed a learning environment through the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME)-based Lesson Study for Learning Community (LSLC) for high school mathematics teachers.…

This study examined the lived experiences of seven beginning secondary mathematics teachers in an upper Midwestern state who had experienced mentoring and remained in teaching. The study sought to identify the mentoring experiences beginning secondary mathematics teachers perceive as most beneficial to their professional growth. Data were…

New teachers felt unprepared as they entered their first year of teaching and were leaving the teaching field at a high rate every school year. Tennessee, like many other states, had a critical shortage of secondary mathematics teachers. Secondary mathematics has been considered a high-needs subject area. New teacher induction programs were…

Pedagogical beliefs are a critical factor in terms of integrating technology into teaching, but very few technology acceptance models (TAMs) have considered them. Hence, this study aims to extend the TAM by incorporating pre-service teachers' conception of teaching and learning. The revised model examined the influence of pre-service mathematics…

Professional organizations have provided recommendations for mathematics teaching and learning; however, few studies have investigated the practical integration of those recommendations into mathematics teacher education programs. In this study, we examine how the reported--"big ideas" of courses in secondary mathematics teacher…

This study aimed at investigating the acquisition degree of the 21st-century skills of mathematics teachers from the perspective of school principals. The study sample consisted of 75 school principals. They were selected randomly among the public schools. The study instrument consisted of four questionnaires, namely: personal skills,…

This qualitative research presents how a mathematics teacher educator's feedbacks to two lower secondary school mathematics teachers affects their design of hypothetical learning trajectories regarding teaching patterns and their teaching practice. The data comes from a web portal, which was designed as a professional development tool for…
