Challenges facing pre-service secondary teachers.
Abstract
The development of a sense of community is important in secondary classrooms if students are going to be able to explore and develop sophisticated mathematical reasoning. This longitudinal study was conducted over eight years and examined the kinds of challenges that pre-service secondary mathematics teachers face as they enter the practical realm of a secondary classroom. Analysis led to four categories of challenges and suggested topics that need to be addressed in methods courses and monitored during student teaching.
