Abstract

The concept of teachers’ training transfer is understood as the extent to which teachers are capable of generalizing the training learning to workplace. In this process, recognizing application scenarios and making decisions on the application play an important role. The objective of the research is to explore the relationships between the training transfer factors and the activities of identifying application scenarios and making decisions about it in the context of the training programs of non-university Mathematics teachers. The participants were 344 active teachers. Two multinomial logistic models were determined to studying the relationships indicated by analyzing the odds ratio of the models. The results showed that the factor Design and development of training was positively associated with both the ability to identify application situations and the decision to carry out an effective application. On the other hand, the factors Follow-up of the training institution and External locus of control were positively associated with the ability to identify application scenarios, while the association between the factor Feedback of students and families and the identification of application scenarios was negative. In conclusion, dimensions have been identified on which to design interventions to improve the training transfer of mathematics teachers.
