This article investigates the role of semiotic tools as sign vehicles in mediating the
socially shared meaning making process in the learning of mathematics pedagogy.
Our particular interest is to investigate the evolving role of the social sign in
learning within culturally organized activities. The participants in our study were
a group of teachers participating in an in-service mathematics course whose pedagogy
draws on the sociocultural perspective. A specific analysis method to unravel
the nature of the semiotic tool as a sign vehicle was developed for the study.
The results of the study suggest that socially shared meaning making around the
semiotic sign vehicle consisted of seven phases, with a shared social sign as an
end result indicating collaborative learning. On the whole, the semiotic sign vehicle
investigated in this study supported the understanding of socially shared
meaning making and hence teacher learning in the problem solving situation.
