Teaching Roles Development of The Pre-Service Teacher in the School for Promoting Students’ Mathematical Creative Thinking

Abstract

     This research aimed to develop the teaching roles of the pre-service teacher in the school for promoting students’ Mathematical creative thinking by Lesson study and developing creative mathematical thinking of students using Open Approach. This research considers mixed-method and focuses on protocol analysis and video recording description. The statistics data was including the mean and standard deviation from the Mathematical creative thinking evaluation form. The target group was selected by purposive sampling from volunteers who agree to participate in the research project, followed by Phuket Rajabhat University Ethics on Human Research. Data consists of 5 pre-service teachers in the school from the Mathematics department, Faculty of Education, Phuket Rajabhat University, and 108 students from 3 schools in the Phuket area who study with pre-service teachers.

         Results show that 1. Lesson study improved the pre-service teacher's teaching roles in the school were developed into level 3 and above. The teaching roles of the pre-service teacher in the school could provide students opportunities to solve problems and exchange and share ideas. Interesting idea exchange and make teaching activity through the most student’s idea exchange. The idea-sharing affected the Mathematical creative thinking development of the student. 2. Students who learned by Open Approach of the pre-service teacher's teaching in the school increased in Mathematical creative thinking score before learning in all factor of thinking.
