teaching materials, teacher profiles, mixed-methods approachAbstract
This study explores the diverse approaches adopted by primary school teachers in the preparation of their teaching materials, a critical aspect of their pedagogical practice that directly influences student learning. Using a mixed-methods design combining a survey (N = 183) and interviews (N = 12), we aimed to understand general trends in the use, adaptation, or creation of teaching materials, as well as the specific concerns of different teacher profiles. By examining common and distinct elements across these profiles, this research sheds new light on the complexity of teachers’ pedagogical choices and the dynamics guiding their decisions in the preparation of teaching materials.
