    Enhancing Prospective Mathematics Teachers’ Noticing Skills Through Online Laboratory School Activities
    (PME, 2022) Ölmez, İbrahim Burak; Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha; Birgili, Bengi
    This study investigated how prospective mathematics teachers’ (PMT) noticing skills, (i.e., attending, interpretation, and decision-making) were influenced through online laboratory school (OLS) activities. OLS provided PMTs opportunities for online fieldwork and work with students. The activities included lesson planning with peers under the supervision of academicians and experienced teachers, teaching, reflection and getting feedback. PMTs’ reflections on a video-taped lesson served as the pre-post assessment of the intervention. Quantitative analyses of data indicated PMTs showed statistically significant improvement in both interpretation and decision-making. Attending, on the other hand, was improved but not in a statistically significant way.

    Mathematics Teacher Education With University Within School Model and Flipped Classroom Technique
    (2016) Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha
    Abstract : I taught ‘Introduction to Mathematics Teaching course’ using Flipped classroom. This was the first time I used flipped classroom to teach this course. The main objective of the course was to introduce the ‘mathematics teaching’ profession to first year students and to have pre-service teachers some teaching experience with children. For this course, we also adapted University within School model, where we valued the experience of being at our work places which is ‘schools.’ MEF University adopted this model for the whole Faculty of Education. Flipped classroom technique was adopted university wide. Therefore, this course is unique that it connects both University within school model and flipped classroom method. In Flipped classroom, it is essential to use videos. Throughout 14 weeks of instruction, we had four main sources of videos: 1) videos that I created related to reading the book called ‘Empowering Beginning Middle School Teachers’ 2) pre-service teachers’ own created videos (related to their teaching of 6th grade students) 3) videos that I took last year during my own teaching of 5th grade mathematics classroom 4) YouTube videos from a well known mathematics educator, Jo Boaler- Stanford University, about mathematics education. In the presentation, I will discuss how we used the videos, what the benefits and disadvantages of using them are. Using University within School model, each pre-service teacher was assigned to a pair of students that they taught parallel concepts to the school mathematics. They had 8-weeks of one-to-one teaching for 2 hours per week. Related to pre-service teachers’ interactions with 6th grade students, they had weekly reflection journals which they answered structured questions. In the presentation, I will discuss the details of their journals and the feedbacks they gave about their experiences related to the foundations of this course.

    Academicians as Teachers: Nurturing Teaching Experience
    (2016) Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha; Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Birgili, Bengi; Aydın, Utkun; Özcan, Mustafa
    Four academicians volunteered to teach 5th grade mathematics for one year in a Turkish public school. Academicians met every week for 40 weeks where they discussed what to teach, how to teach and reflected on implementation of their shared planning. Videotapes of first six Regular Meetings and six weeks of Research Meetings were analyzed. The focus of qualitative analyses was on how the knowledge of teaching was constructed differently in those two settings. References evidencing academician teachers’ knowledge of students, instructional strategies and assessment were found to occur more frequently during the Research Meetings compared to Regular Meetings. Academicians discussed more frequently what questions to ask in the classroom and exchanged comments about students’ thinking with more evidence. Using learning theories and framing planning and reflection discussions with a focus on research appeared to be a productive way of nurturing teaching experiences of academicians as teachers.

    University-School Partnership: a Lens for School Type Differences in Fractional Knowledge
    (ECER 2017, 2017) Aydın, Utkun; Birgili, Bengi; Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Özcan, Mustafa; Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha
    This study will examine school type differences in fifth-grade students’ fractional knowledge using data from a university-school partnership. The participants will be a total of 203 students from a public school and a private school in two districts willing to collaborate in the University within School Project. International large-scale assessments generally show that private school students outperform public school students in mathematics, science, and reading (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD], 2009). While there is a strong theoretical impetus in the superiority of private schools, in more recent studies, after controlling for student and home background factors there appears to be little to no statistically significant school type differences in standardized test scores (OECD, 2013). In a related vein, Turkey had the largest variance internationally between schools in student performance: The overall achievement gap between the lower and higher achievers was large (OECD, 2007), and that this discrepancy was attributable to the between-school variation while controlling for family background and demographic characteristics (Alacacı & Erbaş, 2010).

    Mathematical Opportunities: Noticing and Acting
    (HAL, 2015) Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha; Kılıç, Hülya
    The aim of this study was to investigate how three pre-service teachers (PSTs) listen to students, notice Mathematical Opportunities (MO) and scaffold ideas based on MOs. There were 12 videos of three PSTs’ interactions with a pair of 6th grade students respectively while studying fractions. We analysed videotapes and identified different number of MOs for each PST. The findings revealed that with the help of this research and teaching environment, all PSTs listen to the students to understand their mathematical thinking initially (meaning catching MOs) and try to follow-up on them in action in differing levels of sophistication. While most of the investigated MOs resulted in a mathematical solution, PSTs need to further develop appropriate scaffolding practices.
