Mathematics teacher education has a critical role to play in preparing teachers to put at center stage goals tosupport equity in mathematics education and to diversify student interest and participation in mathematics. These goals must also resonate with broader public interest goals to improve educational and socialconditions both in the U. S. and abroad. The Mathematics Teacher Education in the Public Interest book aimsto support mathematics teacher educators to prepare teachers with new knowledge and skills to support allstudents to learn mathematics and to become informed, engaged, and critical citizens within theircommunity, nation, and world. While internationally there is considerable interest among mathematicseducators in issues of equity and social justice, the literature on mathematics teacher education for equity andsocial justice thus far has been very limited. The book provides theoretical discussions on the need for equity and social justice emphases inmathematics teacher education, as well as practical examples from mathematics teacher educators, documenting their own professional efforts tocenter practices on equity and social justice. Section emphases include critical perspectives on mathematics teacher education, the use of equity andsocial justice-themed activities in mathematics teacher preparation courses, and issues of identity and community and cultural contexts in mathematicsteacher education. In addition syntheses of major ideas of the book are offered by experienced researchers. | Mathematics Teacher Education in the Public Interest by Laura J. Jacobson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
