SCOPE

The Mathematics Teacher Education book series presents relevant research and
innovative international developments with respect to the preparation and professional
development of mathematics teachers. A better understanding of teachers’ cognitions as
well as knowledge about effective models for preservice and inservice teacher education
is fundamental for mathematics education at the primary, secondary and tertiary level in
the various contexts and cultures across the world. Therefore, considerable research is
needed to understand what facilitates and impedes mathematics teachers’ professional
learning. The series aims to provide a significant resource for teachers, teacher educators
and graduate students by introducing and critically reflecting new ideas, concepts and
findings of research in teacher education.
