What about mathematics teachers?
A project about uncovering the aspiring
mathematics teachers beliefs about
mathematics and mathematics teachers
Students’ first task at HiST
Draw a
mathematics
teacher
NO Stick
figures
allowed!

You have 4
minutes!
Why would this be of interest?
Insight into students’ beliefs about mathematics
teachers
Friendly activity to ease up on the first day
Great for discussing myths and meanings about
mathematics and mathematics teachers.
We can refer back to the students’ drawings as
knowledge constructed in class
What made me think…

The students who drew these did it in different years with a background from
different parts in the country. How come they were so similar!?
Math teachers - what about math teachers?
What did the students draw?
Around 500 drawings
http://www.slideshare.net/oisteing/
matematikklreren-2010
Tiresome categorizing and coding…
The human being
- Mostly men (70 %)
- And they were drawn by mostly women (ca. 80 %?)

- Most of them have glasses (70 %)
- Lot of facial hair and at the same time loss of

hair
- Unfriendly appearance
- Checkered clothes (oh, this is so true…)
- Vests (!)
- Clothes with mathematics on (!!)
Loss of hair

Facial hair

Glasses

Unfriendly appearance

Checkered clothing
Math teachers - what about math teachers?
The mathematics
• In the shape of finished products on the
blackboard
– Almost never as a process or activity

• Often mathematics that make no sense at
all

The pedagogical practice
Many teachers are drawn with some tools
– Rulers
– Pointers and other dated resources
– Almost no calculators
– One single teacher (1) drawn with a laptop or
desktop

Lærerne gikk som om de gikk igjen. En vissen,
grinet flokk, som gjennom årene utviklet hver sin
særhet til karikatur; fordi deres ensomme liv var
å sitte på kateteret og strø støv på en ungdom de
ikke forstod.

Alexander Kielland, Gift, 1883.
The teachers were walking as were they spectres.
A withered, cranky herd that through the mists
of time transformed their own peculiarities into
caricature. Because their lonely lifes were to be
sitting by their desks, sprinkling dust on a youth
they could not understand.

Alexander Kielland, Gift, 1883.
