Christine M. Phelps-Gregory; Gabrielle Redfield; Martha Frank – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2023
Mathematics self-efficacy (beliefs about oneself as a learner of mathematics) and mathematics teaching efficacy (beliefs about oneself as a mathematics teacher) are important constructs that influence pre-service teachers' (PTs') learning and teaching (Bandura 1986). However, less is known qualitatively about how PTs define good teaching and…

Thomas, Jonathan; Marzilli, Taylor; Sawyer, Brittney; Jong, Cindy; Schack, Edna O.; Fisher, Molly H. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2020
This study examines potential bias with respect to perceived gender and ethnicity in preservice teachers' professional noticing of children's mathematical thinking. The goal of the study was to explore how, and to what extent bias emerges within pre-service teachers' professional noticing of children of differing perceived races and genders. Our…

Appova, Aina K. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2018
I qualitatively reviewed mathematics education literature to offer explicit classroom-based examples and recommendations on the learning opportunities that can be embedded into mathematics content courses, designed specifically for prospective elementary teachers (ePTs), to help develop their knowledge of students and their mathematical thinking,…

Reys, Robert – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2016
Arguments for significantly improving doctoral programs have long been made, both nationally and internationally. The nature and variety of doctoral programs makes it difficult to single out specific changes that would be equally applicable to every discipline-specific doctoral program. Therefore, this commentary will focus on doctoral programs…

An, Song A.; Tillman, Daniel A.; Paez, Carlos R. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2015
This study investigated the effects upon elementary preservice teachers' mathematics teaching self-efficacy and interdisciplinary lesson design strategies, which resulted from an educational intervention that emphasized integrated music-mathematics instruction. The participating elementary preservice teachers (n = 152) were recruited for this…

Marshall, Anne Marie – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2014
Increasingly, elementary classroom teachers are being called to teach a myriad of subjects, including visual art, dance, and music. Preservice teachers must be prepared to teach and integrate multiple subjects. To that end, preservice teachers will need experiences in their preparation that help them to see connections across content areas and…
