In the present study, one of the purposes was to investigate an in-service teacher's (Aysu) knowledge of the cognitive demand of mathematical tasks in the algebra domain, particularly in the notion of slope, by engaging her in a mathematics coaching program. The second purpose was to examine the changes in the teacher's noticing skills and how her noticing skills progressed through the coaching stages, including planning, enacting, and review. Accordingly, coaching as a professional development model was designed by adopting a teaching experiment methodology. This study is conducted with an 8th-grade mathematics teacher and her students in a classroom environment in a public middle school. Different sources are utilized as data collection tools, such as the classroom sessions, teacher's pre- and post-observation interviews of coaching cycles, design team meetings, students' works, and coach's field notes as audio or video recordings. Data were analyzed by using qualitative methods. The findings revealed development in an in-service teacher's both knowledge of the levels of cognitive demand of tasks and her noticing of students' mathematical thinking throughout the coaching process. It was implied that core features of the coaching program within the teaching experiment which were collaboration, focus on specific content, cyclic process, and research-based materials, had an impact on the teacher's progress in her practices. In that respect, the study has insightful practical and theoretical implications for mathematics teacher educators, policymakers, and scholars in the mathematics education field.

An Analysis of prospective middle school mathematics teachers‘ argumentation structures in technology and paper-pencil environments
Erkek, Özlem; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Department of Elementary Education (2017)
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the nature of argumentation structures of prospective middle school mathematics teachers while solving geometry tasks within the GeoGebra and Paper-Pencil groups. The study employed qualitative case study design and the data of which were collected from 16 prospective middle school mathematics teachers during the fall semester of the 2013-2014 academic year. Data were based on the video recordings of the implementations, the focus group interviews and docu...
Prospective elementary mathematics teachers’ knowledge of history of mathematics and their attitudes and beliefs towards the use of history of mathematics in mathematics education
Alpaslan, Mustafa; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Haser, Çiğdem; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2011)
The aim of this study was to investigate the roles of year in teacher education program and gender on prospective elementary mathematics teachers’ knowledge of history of mathematics and their attitudes and beliefs towards the use of history of mathematics in the teaching and learning of mathematics. Moreover, the relationship between prospective teachers’ knowledge of history of mathematics and their attitudes and beliefs about the history of mathematics usage was examined. The data of the study were obtai...
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...
A Study on inservice teachers' attitudes toward and beliefs about mathematical problem solving
Çokçalışkan, Hasan; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2012)
The main purpose of this study was to investigate elementary teachers’ and elementary mathematics teachers’ attitudes toward and beliefs about mathematical problem solving in terms of gender and grade level being taught. Moreover, the relationship between elementary teachers’ and elementary mathematics teachers’ attitudes and beliefs was evaluated in this study. The data were collected from 141 in-service elementary teachers who are teaching 4th and 5th graders and elementary mathematics teachers who are te...
Investigating preservice middle school mathematics teachers’ noticing of students’ mathematical thinking in the context of lesson study /
Güner, Pınar; Akyüz, Didem; Department of Elementary Education (2017)
The purpose of the current study was to examine preservice middle school mathematics teachers’ noticing of students’ mathematical thinking in the context of lesson study professional development model and determine whether any changes took place in their noticing skills. Qualitative research methodology, in particular, case study was used in order to elaborate what and how preservice teachers notice during lesson study phases which are planning, teaching, reflecting, re teaching and re-reflecting. With this...
