Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立新竹師範學院 === 國民教育研究所 === 87 === The purpose of this research is mainly to base on the growth group of joint action research on 〝primary school teacher mathematical professional development model with the school as the center〞to investigate what are the mathematical beliefs of four Grade 1 teachers supported by the new course teaching and also the effect on their beliefs due to the participation of this growth group. The main research questions are:1.What are the original mathematical belief before these four grade 1 teachers participated in this growth group? What are their performances on the new course, the mathematical self quality and mathematical teaching ? 2. After these four grade 1 teachers participated in the growth group , what are the changes in mathematical beliefs on the new course , mathematical self quality and mathematical teaching ? 3. After these four grade 1 teachers participated growth group , what is the relationship between teaching beliefs and actual teaching behavior ? This research adopted qualitative method such as individual interview and classroom observation , document analysis etc. to collect the information of the mathematical beliefs of these four teachers and all together there were the following main discoveries: 1. In regard to the changing process of the performance in the mathematical beliefs of these four teachers of this research , there are obvious differences before and after the participation in the growth group. 2. The change in the teachers'' mathematical beliefs is the main factor for the realization of the new course and the realization of the new course is to change teachers on their teaching method and teaching beliefs from〝teacher center〞 to 〝student center〞. 3. The participation in the mathematical growth group established by joint action research direction is to stimulate the dynamics for changes of beliefs of these four teachers. 4. There is existence of difference in the matching level between the mathematical beliefs and actual teaching behavior of these four teachers.
