Secondary School Students’ Motivation Profiles and Their Relations with Academic Emotions in Mathematics
The understanding of students’ motivation in mathematics and its relation to emotional aspects is still limited in the discourse on motivational and emotional aspects of school students’ mathematical learning. This study addresses this gap by exploring the relationship between motivation and emotions in mathematics, grounded in the Expectancy-Value Theory (EVT) and Control-Value Theory (CVT). Using Latent Profile Analysis with a sample of 1,999 G…
The influence of teachers’ dispositions on their use of mathematical problem-solving tasks
Mathematical tasks play a central role in shaping students’ opportunities to engage in complex cognitive processes such as mathematical problem solving. While previous research has highlighted the importance of teachers’ professional competence for instructional quality, less is known about how different facets of teachers’ dispositions jointly relate to the selection of tasks with high problem-solving potential. This study investigates how combi…
The relationship between opportunities to learn in teacher education and Chinese preservice teachers’ professional competence
Although research on the relationship between opportunities to learn (OTL) in teacher preparation and preservice teachers' learning outcomes, including aspects of their knowledge, has significantly increased in recent years, the relationship between OTL and preservice secondary school teachers' cognitive competence and, particularly, the situated aspect of competence, in Mainland China remain poorly understood. This paper examines this associatio…
Using AI chatbots to facilitate mathematics preservice teachers’ noticing skills
The ability to notice and interpret relevant aspects of classroom interactions is central to effective teaching and plays a critical role in teachers’ professional development. This study investigated the development and testing of an AI chatbot (NiCo) designed to support preservice teachers’ noticing skills. The chatbot was built using the GPT-4o model and included a meta-prompt that focused on structured support and providing feedback based. Th…
Using Generalizability Theory to examine the effects of presentation order on classroom observation scores
Background Scores from classroom observations serve as important pieces of information for educational researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. However, scoring procedures typically remain untested. This study aims to investigate the effect of sequential and nonsequential scoring of lesson segments from videotaped Norwegian mathematics and science classrooms. Methods Using a cross-over design, we randomly assigned four raters to score 30 vid…

Effects of teaching internships on preservice teachers’ noticing in secondary mathematics education
In this study, we examined the effects of teaching internships and related opportunities to learn, such as conducting lessons or reflecting on teaching practice, on the three facets of teacher noticing, perception, interpretation, and decision-making. Cross-lagged effects of these facets were examined to include reciprocal influences of the facets on each other and to facilitate insights into the development of teacher noticing and how its three …
Design and validation of initial diagnostic tests for preservice teachers as a tool for teacher education effectiveness
Teacher education quality and effectiveness have been at the centre of policy discussions in the last decades. As part of efforts to improve teacher preparation, law 20.903 requires Chilean universities to design and apply diagnostic tests assessing the construct of their choice to all first-year preservice teachers. Based on these results, universities must design strategies to support their students. However, universities are facing challenges …
Adapting german instruments and validating their use to measure chilean mathematics teachers’ professional competence
Improving the effectiveness of teacher professional development programmes is crucial for enhancing education, and assessing teacher professional competence is vital. This study aimed at adapting and validating instruments originally developed in Germany as part of a follow-up study to TEDS-M (Teacher Education Development Study-Mathematics), intending to present a valid instrument that can measure professional competence among Chilean teachers. …
Professional identity of pre-service teachers
In this study, we investigated the professional identities of 490 pre-service teachers (PSTs) at the University of Hamburg, Germany. By distributing 100 percentage points, the PSTs assessed the relevance of the roles of subject specialist (SS), didactician (DD), and pedagogue (PD) for themselves currently (actual identity) and for an ideal teacher in different school types (designated identity). A theory-based non-hierarchical cluster analysis di…
Mathematics teachers’ professional noticing
Teacher noticing has become widely accepted as a principal component of teacher competence; it is supported during university teacher education in many activities. However, only a few high-quality standardized measurement instruments exist that capture noticing and allow valid interpretations of how its development depends on factors within university teacher education. The present study is based on a video-based test instrument that has been dev…

Investigating teachers' job satisfaction, stress and working environment
This study investigates the relations between working environment and teachers' job satisfaction, perceived work‐related stress, as well as work‐related self‐efficacy. The sample consisted of 226 mathematics teachers from German secondary schools. About 55% were female and they had been teaching for 13 years on average. We used self‐reported measures to assess how teachers perceived their working environment (regarding autonomy, feedback, and soc…
Teacher noticing
Opening up the black box
Existing research indicates inconsistent or at best weak predictive effects of teacher knowledge on student achievement. Data from Germany were used to examine the relation between teachers' content and pedagogical content knowledge, their perception, interpretation, and decision-making skills, the instructional quality implemented in class, and students' learning progression in mathematics. Rather than direct effects of teacher knowledge on stud…
Mathematics teacher learning to notice
Teacher noticing has become increasingly acknowledged as a fundamental aspect of teacher professional competence. Teacher education scholars have examined how the development of noticing might be supported both in initial teacher education and in professional development. In mathematics teacher education, several studies have explored the use of video as a supporting tool for teacher noticing. It remains unclear how this body of work builds on th…

Theodizee als biblisch erzählte Geschichte Theodizee als biblisch erzählte Geschichte
In the opinion of J. B. Metz, the theodicy question was the central theme of biblical theology which is a result of the temporality of God's actions. According to the theory expressed in this article, biblical narration, which creates a temporal meaning for our life, corresponds to this. This is expressed most vividly in the narration of critical situations which lead to fulfilment rather than to a logical solution.
