Viseu, Floriano; da Ponte, Joao Pedro – Mathematics Teacher Education and Development, 2012
Prospective mathematics teachers often start their practice with images of learning situations quite different from current curriculum orientations. Such is the case of Fabio, who, at the beginning of his practicum, proposed mostly exercises and promoted unidirectional communication. We analyse the contribution of a teacher education setting based…
