This paper (1) presents a conceptual framework for analyzing the mathematics addressed in probability lessons and (2) uses
the framework to compare the mathematics that two teachers with contrasting teaching approaches addressed in class when teaching
the topic of probability. One teaching approach aimed to develop understanding; the other emphasiz...
This study examines a commonly held view that teachers tend to focus less on developing understanding and more on mechanistic
answer-finding when teaching in classes of lower-achieving students. The study investigates this by analyzing actual practices
of teaching mathematics and of classroom interactions in classes having different levels taught b...
Theoretical frameworks for analyzing teacher subject-matter knowledge in specific mathematical domains are rare. In this paper we propose a theoretical framework for teacher subject-matter knowledge and understanding about probability. The framework comprises of seven aspects: essential features, the strength of probability, different representatio...

... The theoretical and the experimental probability represent the two main interpretations in the objective school, in which none of them is suitable for all situations, and the appropriate approach of probability should be adapted depending upon the context (Kvatinsky & Even, 2002Torres & Contreras, 2014). During classroom instruction, theoretical probability considers the most used interpretation. ...
... This is done so that the teacher has an action plan for every possible answer to students, called didactic anticipation (Bagus, Mantra, Handayani, & Suwandi, 2019;Trisna, 2019) (Suryadi, 2013. Therefore, teachers must be able to design learning that can anticipate all student responses that may occur in didactic situations that arise during learning (Chick, Vincent, & Education., 2005;Even & Kvatinsky, 2010). Teaching and learning activities with an innovative atmosphere can also increase students' enthusiasm and interest in learning Didactic situation theory emphasizes that the innovation of teaching and learning processes can be modeled in an activity that includes three main steps (Maskur et al., 2020;Zazkis & Zazkis, 2010). ...

... 1. Theoretically, teachers report that they focus more on guiding students to obtain correct answers but less on developing students' understanding when teaching LA students than when teaching HA students (Zohar et al., 2001;Evan & Kvatinsky, 2009). Thus, the first hypothesis is "Teachers' rates for HA classes are lower than their rates for LA classes in the dimension of the instrumentalist view." ...
