Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present and justify the design of POEMat.ES, an observational tool of the mathematics teacher's actions in the classroom. POEMat.ES was developed by a group of researchers with diverse profiles in terms of teaching and research experience, with the aim of systematizing the observation of teaching practice in order to understand and accurately interpret the process of teaching mathematics in secondary education in the Spanish context. POEMat.ES design is based on specific models of mathematics teacher knowledge. The construction of the tool is based on two complementary approaches: from a systematic literature review, categories of observation of teacher's actions are proposed through systematic literature review, and categories are then redefined, refined and validated through the viewing of videos.
