The purpose of this study was to understand preservice physics teachers’ knowledge about and use of students’ pre-instructional thinking in their instructional practices. The data were collected in an instructional methods course designed for preservice physics teachers (PST). Two types of data sources were used: PSTs’ written predictions about students’ pre-instructional thinking for some specific physical situations and their microteaching practices. The analyses of data showed that although PST’s have knowledge about students’ pre-instructional thinking at some level, they could not use it in their instructional practices at the expected level. PSTs seemed to lack the ability to integrate students’ pre-instructional thinking into their instructional practices because of the problems related to their pedagogical knowledge and subject matter knowledge. In terms of pedagogical knowledge, PSTs do not know how to cope with different types of pre-instructional knowledge. Regarding subject matter knowledge, PSTs do not have strong subject matter knowledge to use it flexibly during their instructional practices.

Exploring prospective secondary mathematics teachers' interpretation of student thinking through analysing students' work in modelling
Kabar, Makbule Gözde Didiş; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Çetinkaya, Bülent; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Alacacı, Cengiz (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2016-09-01)
Researchers point out the importance of teachers' knowledge of student thinking and the role of examining student work in various contexts to develop a knowledge base regarding students' ways of thinking. This study investigated prospective secondary mathematics teachers' interpretations of students' thinking as manifested in students' work that embodied solutions of mathematical modelling tasks. The data were collected from 25 prospective mathematics teachers enrolled in an undergraduate course through fou...
Pre-service elementary teachers' noticing expertise of students' mathematical thinking: the case of fractions
Coskun, Sumeyra Dogan; Sitrava, Reyhan Tekin; Işıksal Bostan, Mine (2021-10-01)
The purpose of the study is to investigate pre-service elementary teachers' noticing expertise of students' mathematical thinking within the context of fractions. For this purpose, 32 pre-service elementary teachers were asked to examine students' answers and ways of thinking given in written excerpts related to fractions. The data was mainly analysed using the constant comparative method to identify similarities and differences in pre-service elementary teachers' answers based on the existing Professional ...
Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching the Function Concept and Student Learning Outcomes
Hatisaru, Vesife; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-04-01)
The purpose of this study was to examine the potential interrelationships between teachers' mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) the function concept and their students' learning outcomes of this concept. Data were collected from two teachers teaching in a vocational high school and their students through a function concept test for teachers and students, follow-up interviews with teachers, and classroom observations. Findings indicated that teachers' MKT and students' learning outcomes were related to...
Scientific epistemological beliefs, perceptions of constructivist learning environment and attitude towards science as determinants of students approaches to learning
Özkal, Kudret; Öztekin, Ceren; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2007)
The purpose of this study was to investigate scientific epistemological beliefs, perceptions of constructivist learning environment, attitude towards science, prior knowledge and gender as determinants of students’ approaches to learning. This study was carried out in 2005-2006 Spring Semester. One thousand, one hundred and fifty two eighth grade students from seven public schools in Çankaya, a district of Ankara participated in this study. Epistemological Beliefs Questionnaire, Constructivist Learning Envi...
Preservice elementary teachers beliefs about science teaching
Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül (2008-01-01)
In this study, a Beliefs About Teaching (BAT) scale was created to examine preservice elementary science teachers’ self-reported comfort level with both traditional and reform-based teaching methods, assessment techniques, classroom management techniques, and science content. Participants included 166 preservice teachers from three different US universities. Analyses revealed significant correlations among participants’ confidence level with assessment techniques, classroom management, teaching methods, and...
