Building Support for Scholarly Practices in Mathematics Methods is the product of collaborations among over 40 mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) who teach mathematics methods courses for prospective PreK-12 teachers in many different institutional contexts and structures. Each chapter unpacks ways in which MTEs use theoretical perspectives to inform their construction of goals, activities designed to address those goals, facilitation of activities, and ways in which MTEs make sense of experiences prospective teachers have as a result.

The book is organized in seven sections that highlight how the theoretical perspective of the instructor impacts scholarly inquiry and practice. The final section provides insight as we look backward to reflect, and forward with excitement, moving with the strength of the variation we found in our stories and the feeling of solidarity that results in our understandings of purposes for and insight into teaching mathematics methods. This book can serve as a resource for MTEs as they discuss and construct scholarly practices and as they undertake scholarly inquiry as a means to systematically examine their practice.

This book contains an Open Access chapter.

Mathematics teacher educators’ (MTEs) intimate scholarship is growing in interest and is diversifying research methodologies and products in the mathematics teacher education field. Becoming an MTE involves identifying self as belonging to mathematics teacher education. Although insights about belonging in mathematics teacher education have focused on teachers, becoming an MTE involves learning and growing in the teaching of mathematics teaching.

This volume brings together the work of a range of US-based scholars at various career stages, working in mathematics teacher education using self-based methodologies such as narrative, autobiography and autoethnography, to explore knowing and doing in relation to the process of becoming mathematics teacher educators (MTEs). The chapters in the book reflect the value of intimate scholarship and its focus on practice and a variety of associated methods are utilised to capture aspects of MTE work and a conceptualisation of knowing in the context of practice.
