Abstract

This investigation explored pre-service teachers’ mathematics content knowledge (MCK) and beliefs associated with mathematics education practices. An Exploratory Factor Analysis, conducted on a beliefs and attitudes questionnaire, produced three common attitude factors associated with (1) inquiry-based teaching; (2) how mathematics knowledge is acquired; and (3) the applicability of mathematics. These factors were used in subsequent multivariate analyses to determine whether teachers’ mathematics competence influenced their personal mathematics viewpoints and perspectives. There was no difference between those students who had studied advanced and standard mathematics at school on the three belief and attitude measures, despite distinct differences in their MCK.

职前教师的数学内容知识：对高等教育数学教学的启示

本研究探讨职前教师的数学内容知识（MCK）和与数学教育实践相关的信念。在信念和态度问卷上进行的探索性因素分析产生了三个与（1）探究式教学相关的常见态度因素；（2）数学知识是如何获得的；（3）数学的适用性。这些因素被用于随后的多变量分析，以确定教师的数学能力是否影响了他们个人的数学观点和观点。在学校学习过高等数学和标准数学的学生在三种信念和态度测量方面没有差异，尽管他们的MCK存在明显差异。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
