Conocimiento de matemáticas especializado de los estudiantes para maestro de primaria en relación al razonamiento proporcional

Un dominio particular del conocimiento matemático para la enseñanza es el conocimiento de matemáticas especializado. Este estudio se centra en examinar el conocimiento de matemáticas especializado en el ámbito del razonamiento proporcional de un grupo de estudiantes para maestro de Educación Primaria. Los resultados muestran que los estudiantes para maestro tienen un conocimiento especializado sobre el razonamiento proporcional limitado puesto de manifiesto por la dificultad en identificar situaciones no proporcionales, en desarrollar formas de razonar en relación a la construcción de la unidad y en manejar el significado multiplicativo de la idea de operador.

Causes of tension in post-observation feedback in pre-service teacher training: an alternative view

A central component in pre-service teacher training is teaching practice and feedback. In some cases, feedback results in disquiet and tension (Brandt, 2008). Many researchers attribute this tension to the incompatibility of the assessment and development roles that the trainer must perform. The research reported on here, however, suggests that tension may also be rooted in a difference in expectation amongst trainers and trainees about the purpose and performance of feedback. This can result in trainees not playing by the rules of the game (Roberts & Sarangi, 2001) either because they do not understand them or because they wish to challenge them.

Making a Case for Global Education: Revisiting Pre-Service Teacher Lesson Planning Methods

Globalization has tightened the bonds of interconnectedness and interdependence among nation-states. Students are destined for careers that are profoundly international in nature. They need to develop global literacy aided by a global education. This paper mandates the need for global education as part of the pre-service teacher-training programs.

Seeing disadvantage in schools: exploring student teachers’ perceptions of poverty and disadvantage using visual pedagogy

This paper describes exploratory research into the development of innovative visual pedagogies for investigating how pre-service student teachers articulate their views about the effects of poverty on educational attainment. Social class emerges as the strongest factor in poverty and educational disadvantage in the UK. The resulting issues are often awkward for students to discuss and conventional pedagogies may not have effective ‘reach’ here. Findings from this study showed that the visual methods deployed gave students pedagogically well structured spaces for the expression and exchange of a diversity of views about poverty and social class, engaging them in both heated discussions and prolonged ‘silences’. However, the pedagogies did not challenge the stereotypical deficit models of ‘the poor’ which some students expressed. Nevertheless, we argue that reconfigured versions of these visual pedagogies have considerable potential for innovative social justice work in teacher education.

Competences for science teaching at the 21st century

This study presents a contribution to the conceptual and terminological clarification of the concept of teaching competence, as well as for the identification of a competencial framework of competences for science teaching at a primary education level, having in mind educating citizens for the 21st century as scientific literates. The proposed framework was developed based on an intensive literature review and on the contributions emerging from a shared reflection between researchers in science education (teachers educators), future primary teachers (pre-service teachers) and in-service primary teachers.

A FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES EM COMUNIDADES DE PRÁTICA: O CASO DE UM GRUPO DE PROFESSORES DE QUÍMICA EM FORMAÇÃO INICIAL

This work deals with communities of practice and their contribution to pre-service teacher training. A group of eight pre-service chemistry teachers was accompanied during their participation in the PIBID program. Based on their interaction in planning teaching activities, the group was characterized as a community of practice. For this characterization the three dimensions of communities of practice were observed: mutual engagement, joint enterprise and shared repertoire. The results showed that the community of practice was essential for the training of pre-service chemistry teachers. Through community practice, pre-service teachers were able to learn more about their future practice as chemistry teachers.

The status of literature: English teaching and the condition of literature teaching in schools

Although the curriculum subject of English is continually reviewed and revised in all English speaking countries, the status of literature is rarely questioned i.e. that it is of high cultural value and all students should be taught about it. The concerns of any review, in any country, are typically about what counts as literature, especially in terms of national heritage and then how much of the curriculum should it occupy. This article reports on three inter-related pieces of research that examine the views of in-service, and pre-service, English teachers about their experiences of teaching literature and their perceptions of its ‘status’ and significance at official level and in the actual classroom; it draws attention to how England compares to some other English speaking countries and draws attention to the need to learn from the negative outcomes of political policy in England. The findings suggest that the nature of engagement with literature for teachers and their students has been distorted by official rhetorics and assessment regimes and that English teachers are deeply concerned to reverse this pattern.

Cómo estudiantes para profesor interpretan el pensamiento matemático de los estudiantes de Bachillerato: la derivada de una función en un punto

El objetivo de esta investigación es caracterizar grados de desarrollo de la competencia docente “mirar con sentido” el pensamiento matemático de los estudiantes en el ámbito específico de la derivada de una función en un punto. A partir de los resultados de las investigaciones previas sobre la derivada diseñamos un cuestionario formado por tres tareas a partir de las respuestas de estudiantes a 3 problemas sobre el concepto de derivada en un punto. Los resultados han permitido generar descriptores de niveles de desarrollo de la competencia docente “mirar con sentido” el pensamiento matemático de los estudiantes. Estos resultados aportan información para el diseño de intervenciones en la formación de profesores de matemáticas que tengan como uno de sus objetivos el desarrollo de la competencia docente “mirar con sentido” el pensamiento matemático de los estudiantes.

On-line writing: a link to learning in a teacher education program

This paper examines the use of on-line discussion as a medium for learning in a pre-service teacher education program. As part of an Education Studies course student teachers engaged in a discussion of issues related to technology and equity in schools. The design of the task and the subsequent analysis of the on-line text were part of a research project investigating whether and how communications technology can be used to integrate and extend the learning of teacher education students. The main argument developed in the paper is that through the on-line activity distinctive sets of writing practices were created. These practices enabled students to make connections between the often disparate parts of teacher education programs-theory and practice, campus and school, research and experience.
