Özet

There are different types of evidence that reflect students' thinking in classroom interactions. Verbal responses, gestures, facial expressions, behaviors can be shown among these. The aim of the study is to reveal the skills of secondary mathematics teachers with different professional experience years to notice different types of evidence of student thinking. For this purpose, the study was designed within the scope of case study, one of the qualitative research methods. The data of the study were obtained through video-based interviews conducted with five secondary mathematics teachers in the fall of 2020. Six video section containing different types of evidence for video-based interviews were shown to teachers. In the interviews, participating teachers were asked to explain what they noticed in videos containing different types of evidence, interpret the situations they noticed, and make instructional decisions. Such skills are important for teachers to be able to carry out sensitive teaching practices. Descriptive analysis technique will be used in analyzing the data obtained by purposeful sampling method. It will be revealed what types of evidence teachers use based on their experiences, how they interpret them, and what kinds of instructional decisions they make depending on the types of evidence.
