The aim of the first stage of the research was to examine the opinions of prospective mathematics teachers about what features a question prepared to develop and measure ML should have to be effective and qualified. Moreover, it was aimed to determine the degree to which prospective teachers apply these qualifications in questions they design to develop and measure ML. The aim of the second stage of the research was to develop a valid and reliable checklist that can be used in the design of the question to develop and measure ML and to show this tool with an application. The research was conducted as a case study model. The study group consisted of 20 prospective mathematics teachers and five mathematics teachers who took ML courses. Interview forms were applied in order to collect data from the teachers and teacher candidates who took the ML course. Content analysis was used in the analysis of the prospective mathematics teachers' opinions about the qualifications of ML question. In the analysis of the data obtained, content, context, process, level and structure categories were formed for effective and qualified ML question. The checklist was decided to be in five categories and a total of 28 items and three options depending on them. It can be said that the checklist for the ML question design, which was developed and piloted in this study, is a valid and reliable measurement tool. Mathematics teachers and related researchers can use the developed checklist as a guide and guiding tool in designing ML questions.

Mathematisation ability of prospective teachers that was low in solving mathematical literacy problems needs serious attention. Therefore, to help prospective teachers do mathematization, they were employed by giving mathematical literacy problems. This study aims to produce mathematical literacy problems that were valid, practical, and have potential effects on the mathematization ability of prospective teacher students. The study was conducted using a design research type development study. Thirty students of prospective teachers in a private university in Sidoarjo became the subjects. Mathematical literacy problems’ qualities from this research should support prospective mathematics teachers in categorizing horizontal and verticalization activities. In addition, the problems were designed using the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) framework with the Indonesian context. The results suggested that the developed mathematical literacy problems could be categorized valid based on validators’ evaluation, practically based on the small group phase results, and have the potential effects were assessed from the results of student tests handed in field test phase using mathematical literacy problems. The test results showed that 78% of prospective mathematics teachers were in the good category of mathematization ability after using the developed problems. The developed mathematical literacy problem has a potential effect so that it can be used as an alternative question in lecturing higher education activities to support the mathematics of prospective teacher students.
