Daniel Thurm; Shuhui Li; Bärbel Barzel; Lianghuo Fan; Na Li – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
Facilitators, i.e., individuals who lead professional development (PD) programs, play a crucial role in providing high-quality PD to teachers, which is particularly relevant in the context of teaching mathematics with technology given the ubiquitous calls to exploit the potential of digital mathematical tools (DMT). However, quantitative research…

Thurm, Daniel; Barzel, Bärbel – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
Teacher self-efficacy beliefs, epistemological beliefs, and beliefs about teaching with technology are regarded as crucial factors for teaching mathematics with technology. However, there is a lack of research that investigates these beliefs while taking into account the multidimensionality of the constructs. In this cross-sectional study with n =…
