Abstract:

This study investigates the relationships between the teaching practices of a cohort of year-four mathematics specialist pre-service teachers (n=48) at Hafouf Teachers' College in Saudi Arabia and their mathematics conceptions. These conceptions were compared to those of the whole cohort of year-three Arabic, mathematics and science pre-service teachers (n = 130). The mathematics conceptions of the two cohorts were surveyed at the beginning of the college semester and the year-four mathematics pre-service teachers were subsequently observed whilst on their teaching practice semester.

Abstract:

This thesis contributes to the understanding of an important ongoing issue in mathematics education and adds to the literature on ways to address this issue. The study is located against a social and historical background of issues of exclusion from participation in opportunities that are afforded by competence in mathematics. Mathematics anxiety (maths anxiety) in primary pre-service teachers has been reported in the research literature as an ongoing issue. This anxiety can lead to high levels of stress and poor performance and can impact on confidence and emotional and academic wellbeing. O

The literature review revealed that learner performance is linked to teacher subject knowledge (Ball, 1990, Ma, 1999) and that teachers’ confidence in doing and teaching mathematics influences the way they teach and their willingness to learn mathematics (Ball, 1990; Graven 2004).

Over the past decades, there has been a growing consensus among researchers and teacher educators that more support and training should be provided for pre-service and in-service teachers in order to help them acquire basic assessment knowledge and competence. Using a quasi-experimental research design, this dissertation study examined the effectiveness of a backward-designed assessment training course for improving the assessment literacy levels of pre-service primary teachers who were participating in college-level teacher preparation programs in Shanghai.

Abstract:

Science and technology are promoted as major contributors to national development. Consequently, improved science education has been placed high on the agenda of tasks to be tackled in many developing countries, although progress has often been limited. In fact there have been claims that the enormous investment in teaching science in developing countries has basically failed, with many reports of how efforts to teach science in developing countries often result in rote learning of strange concepts, mere copying of factual information, and a general lack of understanding on the part of local s

Over a period of twenty months a mathematics teacher educator uses narrative inquiry, a form of story-telling, to investigate her professional practice in working alongside pre-service primary teachers. Two main themes emerge in this research. The first of these centres around the use of mathematical investigations as a vehicle for supporting pre-service primary teachers to consider what the learning and teaching of mathematics may entail. As part of this process the author personally undertook several mathematical investigations. This resulted in significant learning about previously unrecogn

This study was set in the context of a reform agenda for Singapore’s science curriculum to adopt inquiry in teaching and learning science (MOE, 2008). Teachers, including pre-service primary teachers (PSTs) who were subjects of this study, are expected to engage their students with scientific evidence including measurements taken during science investigations. The inherent nature of measurements is that they are always affected by errors that caused uncertainty. Understanding this, as well as other procedural ideas underpinning uncertainty would be important for understanding evidence before l

This study aims to improve grammar pedagogy in pre-service teaching institutions.

Therefore, this mixed methods study contrasts pre-service and in-service teacher beliefs and experiences on grammar and grammar teaching, and knowledge of terminology and concepts, to inform pre-service pedagogical practice.

Abstract:

碩士<br>中原大學<br>應用外語研究所<br>98<br>With the trend of applying service learning to actual practice in higher education around the world, universities in Taiwan have increasingly started to offer service learning programs (Hsu et al., 2007), providing students with channels and venues to advance their academic knowledge via real-world experience (Minor, 2002; Carney, 2004; Russell, 2007). On the other hand, learner autonomy, which is regarded as an essential goal in education, has also gradually developed in the field of TESOL in Taiwan (Hsu, 2006).

Abstract:

This study explores the nature of mentoring in a practical preservice teacher project.

Small groups of preservice teachers worked alongside a mentor as they took responsibility for planning and implementing the program. The research was initiated as there was little known about the way mentors approached their role in this program and there was no information regarding the impact of mentoring on student learning during the

Abstract:

This dissertation entailed a qualitative case study on the confluence of technology and social studies in fostering a constructivist education. Through the examination of pre-service social studies teachers’ understanding of the online primary source resources (OPSR), three themes emerged. The first exposed the fragmented understanding of important pedagogical theories of constructivism and historical thinking among participants; the second suggested that OPSR was mostly valued by pre-service teachers for its provision of primary sources; and the third related to how pre-service teachers viewe
