Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
This study investigated how problem-solving videos can be used in video-mediated professional learning to support secondary preservice mathematics teachers (PMTs) in developing teacher knowledge for noticing student thinking in the context of the derivative concept in calculus. A model of the trajectory of PMTs’ noticing was constructed as six PMTs viewed and analyzed videos of students’ problem solving.

A design experiment was used as the research methodology. Data was collected from video recordings of eight semi-structured teaching episodes …
