Math Teachers' Experiences Learning and Teaching MathCouch, Kathryn 01 January 2016 (has links)
Abstract
In a charter school in the Southwest United States, elementary students were struggling to
attain proficiency in math and have been failing to meet the standards in math on the
Arizona Instrument to Measure Standards test. As a result, these students may not have
been prepared for more advanced math courses as they continued their schooling, and this
failure to attain proficiency in math may continue to impact the school's ability to make
adequate yearly progress. The purpose of this explanatory case study was to explore the
perspectives of elementary math teachers toward teaching math, their preparation to teach
math, and the possible influences they may have on their students' math skills
development. The theoretical framework was self-efficacy theory. Data were gathered
through questionnaires completed by 5 participants teaching kindergarten through 5th
grade and through the investigation of archival data of their students' achievement test
scores. Emerging themes were coded to record and organize relevant information. The
participants indicated that they did not feel prepared to teach elementary math when
entering the classroom after their teacher preparation programs and that they want to gain
more content knowledge and learn more strategies to teach math. Social change may
occur as the elementary math teachers are given a voice concerning the teaching of math,
and this voice could be used in producing staff development and improving instruction.
