Professional noticing coherence: exploring relationships between component processes

Use of video as a representation of practice in teacher education is commonplace. The current study explored the use of a new format (360 video) in the context of preservice teachers’ professional noticing. Findings suggest that preservice teachers viewing 360 videos attended to more student actions than their peers viewing standard video. In addition, using a virtual reality headset to view the 360 videos led to different patterns in where preservice teachers looked in the recorded classroom, and to increased specificity of mathematics content from the scenario. Thus, findings and results support the use of 360 video in teacher education to facilitate teacher noticing. However, future research is needed to further explore this novel technology.

“Noticing matters” (p. 223). Through these words in the concluding chapter, Alan Schoenfeld succinctly captures the theme of this seminal book, Mathematics Teacher Noticing: Seeing Through Teachers' Eyes. The book received the American Education Research Association 2013 Exemplary Research in Teaching and Teacher Education Award. It addresses a variety of meanings and interpretations of teacher noticing from Dewey's earlier work of inner and outer attention to more specific variations such as that of professional noticing, as defined by Jacobs, Lamb, and Philipp. Chapter contributors have provided the foundation and framing of teacher noticing as a construct for studying and improving teaching.
