The Past

Events in the past ten years have made it necessary and desirable for colleges and universities to increase their course requirements in mathematics for elementary school teachers. There has been little or no opposition to this trend except as one finds it in individual colleges when there is a proposal to change course requirements. In mathematics the change has been in the direction of doubling or trebling the number of credits in mathematics required of prospective elementary teachers.

Today there is widespread concern for helping e leme nta ry school teachers acquire new mathematical knowledge. This is reflected in the vast number of inservice programs being conducted across the country. As yet, however, there has been no gene ral agreement on important goals or reasonable levels of achievement to be expected after a series of prescribed in-service experiences. Characteristically there has been no attempt to find out how much of the new mathematics curricula elementary school teachers understand.

Geometric Shapes

Elementary school teachers, preservice or inservice, are not usually given the background in geometry that they need. Some college courses for elementary teachers contain no study of geometry. Those courses that do contain geometry may be limited to traditional topics in measurement, some terminology, and certain facts concerning familiar geometric shapes; or they may review the definitions, theorems, and proofs that the teacher has already had in high school. Judging on hearsay, experience, and an analysis of current mathematics texts for teachers, few courses are providing the teacher with what is needed.

Recent Meeting

At the recent meeting of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics held in New York City,* one elementary school panel dealt with the problem of providing better instruction in mathematics to gifted students. Thus far, most attempts to meet the needs of gifted students have depended upon horizontal enrichment. A difficulty has been that most elementary teachers lack sufficient knowledge of mathematics to make enrichment programs successful. The mathematics preparation of elementary school teachers must be improved.

Lack Of Knowledge

Distance Learning (PJJ) began to be applied by all teachers in Indonesia during the Covid Pandemic including teacher who taughtat the Elementary School (SD) level. The application of this learning is not as easy as what many people talk about, because teachers must be able to select and design instrucctional media using technology. The problem ezperienced by teacher, especially in the regions, is the lack of knowledge in making technology-based learning media, especially learning media that can be used as an evaluation material for Distance Learning (PJJ). As a solution tothis problem, our team conducted training on making google forms for elementary teachers as a medium for evauating Distance Learning (PJJ) during the pandemic. The ethod we provide for this community service activity is by providing direct training to elementary school teachers, making simole modules, and providing assitance in making google form evaluation media. The result of this services activity is that as many as 20 teachers who participated in the training were able to create and design their own google form according to the needs of each subject as a media for evaluation of Distance Learing (PJJ. In addition, based on the results of the questionnaire filled out by the teachers who attended the training, it shows that 90% of the teachers understand how to make google forms themselves and 100% of  the teachers   are happy with the training acivities that have been held.Keyword: google form, pjj, evaluation learning

Purpose: We aimed to explore and compare generalist and physical education (PE) specialist (males and females) elementary teachers’ self-efficacy to teach and the barriers perceived when teaching PE. Methods: Canadian elementary school teachers completed the validated online survey, Teacher Efficacy Scale in PE, with 11 additional questions examining the perceived strength of barriers related to teaching quality PE. Results: Specialist teachers’ self-efficacy (n = 296) was significantly higher (p < .05) than that of generalist teachers (n = 818). Gender was found to predict teachers’ self-efficacy, with female generalists reporting the lowest scores on the Teacher Efficacy Scale in PE. There was a statistically significant difference between the perceived strength of nine out of the 11 listed barriers, with generalist teachers reporting barriers as more inhibitory than specialists. Discussion/Conclusion: This study highlights the gap between generalists’ and specialists’ self-efficacy to teach and the perceived barriers when teaching PE. Efforts specifically targeted to supporting female generalists teaching PE are necessary.

Preservice elementary school teachers (PSTs) often have difficulty understanding hierarchical (i.e., class inclusion) relationships between geometric shapes. In particular, PSTs' predisposition to place squares and rectangles in separate categories can be attributed to their concept images. Although the larger mathematics community prefers the hierarchical definitions of special quadrilaterals, the concept images of special quadrilaterals such as squares and rectangles that PSTs develop in their early experiences contribute to a preference for partitional definitions. This study examines the benefits and limitations of using the Shape Makers curriculum unit to modify preservice teachers' concept images and their definitions of special quadrilaterals.
