Assessment of Mathematics Teachers’ Professional Competence

Abstract

Development of students’ mathematical skills is associated with quality teaching, which means that mathematics teachers should be able to successfully solve mathematical, teaching, and professional problems. The article aims to describe the assessment system of mathematics school teachers’ professional competence, which helps identify gaps in their training and design tailor-made retraining courses. 2,359 mathematics teachers from 13 regions of Russia participated in the research on 05–29 September 2017. Foremost, we conducted a survey and collected data about their teacher category and teacher expertise. Next, we provided a preliminary diagnostic test to enable the participants to self-assess their subject matter and teaching competencies. After that, they completed a three-part diagnostic test to assess their abilities to solve mathematical, teaching, and professional problems. Finally, the participants conducted video lessons. The three-part diagnostic test and video lessons allowed determining the professional competence level for every mathematics teacher. 24% participants showed level I of professional competence, 44% – level II, 9% – level II; 23% participants did not pass the basic level of professional competence. The results show that the mathematics teachers have difficulties in solving mathematical, teaching, or professional problems so tailor-made retraining courses are required. The developed assessment system underlies designing the courses.

Pengembangan Lembar Kerja Siswa Berbasis Think-Talk-Write pada Mata Pelajaran Matematika

“…Pengembangan keterampilan matematika pebelajar dapat dikaitkan kualitas pengajaran, artinya guru matematika harus dapat memecahkan masalah matematika, , pengajaran, dan profesional dengan sukses (Podkhodova, Snegurova, Stefanova, Triapitsyna, & Pisareva, 2020). Untuk mencapai tujuan pembelajaran, guru dan siswa harus berkreasi kegiatan pembelajaran yang inovatif (Sukestiyarno, Mashitoh, & Wardono, 2021).…”

Kompetensi Guru dalam Pengajaran Konsep Matematik: Kajian Literatur Bersistematik

“…Berdasarkan 42 artikel yang telah dipilih, kesemuanya telah menyatakan bahawa faktor pedagogi merupakan antara faktor yang mempengaruhi kepada kompetensi guru. Faktor Terdapat 23 sekolah menengah yang telah membuat kajian berdasarkan kompetensi pedagogi (Chen et al, 2021;Itgel Miyejav, 2018;Choy & Dindyal, 2018;Neto et al, 2020;Podkhodova et al, 2020;Aguirre et al, 2021;Refugio et al, 2019;Beswick & Fraser, 2019;Marufi et al, 2020;Yang et al, 2021;Kim How et al, 2021;Grace et al, 2020;Huda & Pardimim, 2018;Kuzu & Arican, 2020;Stephen Norton, 2019;Sadykova, et al, 2021;Blomeke et al, 2020;Caroline et al, 2019;Davrajoo & Letchumanan, 2019;Schiepe-Tiska, 2019;Jita et al, 2019;Retnawati et al, 2018;Baier et al, 2019). Bagi peringkat sekolah rendah, hanya terdapat 4 kajian sahaja yang dijalankan iaitu dari Belanda (Oonk et al, 2020), Afrika Selatan (Mamsi & Herbert, 2020) dan Filipina (Refugio et al, 2020;Jehana M. Darkis, 2020).…”

“…Manakala tahun 2022 masih belum ada penerbitan. Tahun penerbitan ditunjukkan dalam Rajah 3.Terdapat 24 kajian yaang telah memfokuskan kepada analisis kuantitatif(Itgel Miyejav, 2018;Oonk et al, 2020;Neto et al, 2020;Podkhodova et al 2020;Refugio et al, 2019;…”

Assessment Tools for Monitoring of Forming Prospective Math Teachers’ Professional Competencies in the Study of Mathematical Disciplines

“…Исследование Н. Подходовой и др. [3], посвященное оценке профессиональных компетенций учителя математики, показало, что учителя математики испытывают трудности с решением математических, педагогических или профессиональных проблем.…”
