This paper aims to enhance teachers' understandings of the nature and importance of students' achievement goal orientations in elementary mathematics education. In particular, the study includes a theoretical background about what achievement goal orientation is, and the nature of students' goal orientations. Next, a literature review is provided about the major models identified in goal theory. Then, a discussion is made about why achievement goal orientations are important in mathematics education, supported with the research findings in the literature. Finally, a conclusion is made to summarize the main arguments discussed in the previous parts, with specific suggestions to mathematics teachers.

Training mathematics teachers for realistic math problems: a case of modeling-based teacher education courses
Sevinç, Şerife (2018-04-01)
One important goal of teacher education has been to improve pre-service teachers' understanding of the connection between real-life events and mathematics. Toward this goal, we designed two mathematics teacher education courses based on the Models-and-Modeling Perspective. This study presents a three-tier modeling investigation of (a) pre-service teachers' views about characteristics of realistic mathematics problems, and (b) teacher-level skills required to write such problems. A team of researchers analyz...
Exploring secondary mathematics teachers’ conceptions of mathematical literacy
Genç, Murat; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2017)
The purpose of this research study was to investigate secondary mathematics teachers’ conceptions of mathematical literacy. In doing so, the following three crucial interrelated issues were addressed: (i) teachers’ conceptions of what the notion of mathematical literacy means, (ii) teachers’ conceptions of how the development of mathematical literacy could be facilitated, and (iii) teachers’ conceptions of what a mathematics curriculum emphasizing mathematical literacy should look like. The data gathered fo...
Noticing Student Mathematical Thinking Within the Context of Lesson Study
GÜNER, Pınar; Akyüz, Didem (SAGE Publications, 2019-12-21)
The purpose of this study is to investigate a preservice middle school mathematics teacher's noticing of student mathematical thinking within the context of lesson study as a component of a teaching practicum course in a teacher education program. This study also examines how preservice teacher education experiences in the context of lesson study influence the noticing skill of the participant preservice teacher, Lisa. Results indicated that the lesson study process supported teacher noticing of student mat...
Personal visions of teachers at a village primary school
Byındır, Hasan Ali; Akar, Hanife; Department of Educational Sciences (2007)
The concept of personal vision refers to teachers' ideal perception of education (teaching and learning, classroom management and educational implications for the society). Teacher's personal vision is how he or she wants these dimensions to be. This case study analyzed personal visions of teachers at a rural primary school and investigated the effects of the school context on teachers' personal visions. The data were collected from ten teachers through utilizing the semi-structured interview method. The re...
Middle school mathematics teachers' use of textbooks and integration of textbook tasks into practice: a mixed methods study
Özgeldi, Meriç; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2012)
The current study aimed to explore middle school mathematics teachers’ use of mathematics textbooks and examine their integration of tasks in the textbooks into teaching. The framework of a mixed methods research design guided data collection in this study. A questionnaire called the Use of Mathematics Textbooks Questionnaire was developed and validated to identify the ways teachers benefit from textbooks. The factor analysis revealed four dimensions, namely Reading Student Edition Textbook, Selecting Quest...
