Abstract

Continuous treatment is needed in developing mathematical dispositions. Even at the higher education level, some prospective teachers still need proper treatment in developing their mathematical dispositions. This study tries to reveal instructors' role in fostering their students' mathematical disposition to better didactical situations. This study is qualitative research with a content analysis approach. The results obtained in this study indicate that the instructor's role is still needed in the classroom regardless of the students' mathematical disposition. Instructors ' expected learning role becomes diverse based on the mathematical disposition grouping between good, moderate, and less mathematical dispositions. For prospective teachers who have an excellent mathematical disposition, the instructor's role is to confirm a theorem, confirm answers to questions, and the benefits of contextual topics. For prospective teachers who have a satisfactory mathematical disposition, the instructor's role is to motivate, direct the learning, and keep the classroom conductivity. Whereas for prospective teachers deficient in mathematical disposition, the instructor's role is needed as a direct learning source, structured learning director, and an enjoyable learning rhythm.

Abstract

One of the obstacles to teaching geometric transformation is the complex procedures that require a broad base of prerequisite knowledge. This complexity often leads students to focus on rote memorization and procedural calculations instead of understanding the underlying context. This study aims to overcome these challenges by developing a hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT) and using GeoGebra to enhance visualization and understanding. The case study involved ten university students in Indonesia who tackled the abstraction level in the Transformation, Isometries, and Reflection topics. The researchers analyzed students' worksheets, activity observations, and learning obstacle tests to extract their geometric thinking. Qualitative analysis of the data revealed that seven out of ten participants met three of the four abstraction level indicators. The use of GeoGebra in HLT helped overcome epistemological obstacles. However, integrating GeoGebra into the HLT introduced a new issue: a GeoGebra-centric habit characterized by an excessive dependence on GeoGebra in solving geometric transformation problems.
