    We investigate the beliefs that influence middle and high school algebra teachers’ appraisals of contextual problems having diverse mathematical and pedagogical features. We asked six teachers to analyze six contextual algebra tasks and indicate how they would apportion instructional time among the six tasks based on their structure, pedagogical features, and connections to the real world. We recorded small-group discussions in which teachers shared their responses to this activity, and qualitatively analyzed their discussions for evidence of beliefs that influenced their appraisals of the tasks. The teachers’ beliefs about contextual problems attended to task authenticity, opportunities for mathematical activity, obligations of tasks, and pedagogy and access. Our preliminary findings can inform future efforts to equip teachers with contextual tasks that develop students’ algebraic reasoning and problem solving.
