Mathematics Teacher Education and Quality.

Ernest, Paul

Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, v16 n1 p56-65 Spr 1991

This paper argues that quality in mathematics teaching is related to pupil achievement; teaching approaches; and beliefs about the nature of mathematics, teaching, and learning. The apprenticeship model of mathematics teacher education is seen as depriving student teachers of theory and practical research experience. (MSE)
