Abstract

Several previous studies have discussed Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT) in general and still focus on the mathematical domain only. There have not been many studies that specifically develop MKT frameworks and instruments that focus on numeracy skills. In fact, numeracy is an essential skill that individuals must have in this century so numeracy is important to be taught in schools. In fact, there are still many teachers who have difficulty in teaching numeracy. Therefore, teachers need to have mathematical knowledge to teach numeracy or Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching Numeracy (MKT-N) from an early age. This research aims to design a test instrument that can measure Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching Numeracy (MKT-N) for prospective mathematics teachers at the secondary school level. The concept of MKT-N in this study was developed from the MKT framework which consists of six aspects and adjustments to the numeracy context according to the national framework. The preparation of the questions consists of three steps, namely analysis, design, and development. The results of the study were in the form of valid MKT-N questions based on expert validation with very good criteria (score 0.98). The design of this instrument is expected to be the basis for the development of standardized instruments to map the professional and pedagogic competencies of prospective mathematics teachers in teaching numeracy. Further research is needed to test the test instrument directly to obtain further validation.
