Reflecting on the use of writing to promote mathematical learning: An examination of preservice mathematics teachers' perspectives
R Kenney, M Shoffner, D Norris - The Teacher Educator, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
We examine preservice mathematics teachers' conceptions of writing as a tool for learning
mathematics before and after participation in and reflection on writing tasks. We describe the
use of two targeted activities incorporated into a secondary methods course: writing to learn
mathematics (WTLM) and reflection on that writing. Prior to participation in these activities,
the preservice teachers expressed reluctance toward the use of writing in mathematics and
uncertainty as to how writing could be useful in mathematics, while accepting that some …
