The purpose of this study was to compare two simulated classrooms (virtual vs physical) in terms how they affect pre-service teachers' perceptions and noticing ability. A total 57 elementary school teachers participated (28 virtual Cartoon Classroom 29 physical Bear Classroom). results were mixed. In the quantitative results, no significant difference between group found any dimension perception or noticing, with exception perceived authenticity, indicating that these are equally useful teaching simulations for measuring a teacher's skills. On other hand, qualitative indicated be more authentic relaxed have fewer technical issues than Classroom, whereas easily focused participants' attention on students' ideas.

Abstract The decisions that teachers make in transforming the curriculum into specific lesson plans determine real enactment or otherwise of curricular ideals. These are shaped by resources available and each teacher’s goals orientations. This exploratory study employs Schoenfeld’s decision-making model to examine how resources, orientations influence planning for mathematics problem solving, different profiles primary Chile. To this purpose, a survey was conducted among 40 varying degrees ability experience: some were beginning teachers, others experienced but had no further training teaching solving third group composed with question. Interviews two from profile revealed important differences between three groups. Beginning relied more heavily on official such as standard textbooks, aligning themselves school requirements. Experienced demonstrated strong inclination towards through approach. While acknowledged importance promoting strategies, they did not usually adapt problems mathematical content age/competence their students. Interestingly, all groups under-utilised sections emphasise present focus solving. Finally, found experience alone is enough develop approach focused professional development programmes needed equip necessary skills. In addition, diagnostic should be incorporated initial teacher training.

Abstract Teacher noticing has become widely accepted as a principal component of teacher competence; it is supported during university education in many activities. However, only few high-quality standardized measurement instruments exist that capture and allow valid interpretations how its development depends on factors within education. The present study based video-based test instrument been developed to enable the practicing mathematics teachers—that is, their perception, interpretation, decision-making skills—with respect subject-specific general pedagogical issues secondary classrooms.

Abstract Teacher noticing is a crucial aspect of responsive and ambitious mathematics teaching, allowing educators to understand students' mathematical thinking make informed decisions. However, this influenced by teachers' insider knowledge (i.e., past present experience with students), which shaped societal norms, biases, expectations, including potentially harmful deficit discourses. This study investigates written work from situated perspective using qualitative secondary analysis. The goal exemplify upper elementary use historical gained classroom interactions or informal school settings, along local broader contextual factors. Data analysis included in their class, students, distinctions orientations toward students thinking. Results indicate how enhances, impedes, does not impact individual focus on the details reasoning evidenced strategies. findings contribute more nuanced understanding complexities teacher emphasize importance acknowledging socio–cultural context needed for equitable teaching. Implications are discussed.
