5 Series Editor s Foreword When the International Handbook of Self-Study of Teaching and Teacher Education Practices (Loughran, Hamilton, LaBoskey, & Russell, 2004) was launched at the American Educational Research Association Annual conference in 2004, the discussant, Denis Phillips of Stanford University posed an interesting question for the S-STEP community. Denis asked how the field might further develop and progress in the wake of the achievement of publishing a Handbook that so thoroughly captured the research literature and ideas around self-study. He was of the view that in publishing the Handbook the S-STEP community might feel as though the job had been done and that furthering the core intent of self-study might be overtaken by an approach to gate-keeping that could limit the influence of self-study on the very field it was designed to foster teaching and teacher education. This book by Schuck and Pereira, like that of Crowe s (2010) in Social Studies, offers another clear and strong response to Phillips insightful challenge to the S-STEP community. Schuck and Pereira have assembled an impressive group of mathematics educators, each of whom offers new ways of thinking about the teaching and learning of mathematics as a consequence of their involvement in self-study. The catalyst for their writing was a concern to help our students develop mathematical pedagogical content knowledge as well as subject content knowledge... [because our] soon to be teachers of maths in primary and secondary schools need to recognise, and know how to reduce, the conceptual difficulties that often arise for school students. These authors efforts in so doing are captured in the chapters of this book in ways that demonstrate an abiding commitment to teaching and learning about mathematics teaching that is the core business of mathematics teacher education. The outcome of a serious consideration of a self-study methodology in researching the teaching and learning of mathematics is clearly evident in each of the chapters. Each of the authors demonstrates how they had to challenge their own conceptions of mathematics teaching and learning in order to develop deeper understandings of their own practice because, ultimately, they were concerned to genuinely challenge their own students approach to, and understanding of, mathematics. It is this focus on their students learning that has been so important in shaping their own learning about practice and is clearly an outcome derived from a thoughtful approach to researching practice through self-study. v
6 vi Series Editor s Foreword Because self-study has been a guiding methodology to the research in this book, it is not surprising that other key aspects of teaching and learning also emerge. For example, the book is loosely divided into two parts. The first part offers insights gained as a consequence of learning though mentoring and collaboration a key aspect of self-study. The second part delves into the tensions and conflicts inherent in challenging students attitudes and beliefs about mathematics and mathematics teaching. Through these two separate but closely related organizing principles, a coherent, thoughtful and honest account of salient issues in researching the teaching and learning of mathematics is portrayed for the reader in a most accessible and meaningful way. Schuck and Pereira have certainly assembled a core group of mathematics educators whose work demonstrates quality and scholarship in ways that offer many invitations and opportunities for others to build upon. This book brings to the surface the value of learning with, and from, others through collaboration, mentoring and challenging the status-quo. Key concepts of reflection (Dewey, 1933) and framing and reframing (Schön, 1983) continually emerge in the chapters as the authors draw attention to the need to recognize and reconsider taken-for-granted aspects of practice that are so frequently overlooked or ignored in practice. In so doing, the ability to look again into the heart of teaching and learning in order to purposefully develop long-lasting pedagogical relationships in teacher education emerges as a theme that binds these chapters together into a coherent whole. The editors describe self-study as challenging, unsettling and uncomfortable. However, as they make clear, and as each of the chapters in this book more than illustrates, in accepting the challenge to look into practice in new ways, the sense of being unsettled and uncomfortable clearly leads to new learning that enhances the pedagogical experience for all of those involved. A crucial outcome of self-study is to build on and expand our knowledge of teaching and learning about teaching in ways that matter for the profession. In this book, Schuck and Pereira have done just that by drawing on the experiences of a range of authors who, through their common focus on mathematics, help to offer breakthroughs in a field in ways that genuinely model innovative approaches to studying mathematics teaching and learning. This book is a fine addition to the growing body of literature of subject-specific self-study. It illustrates how understanding and responding to the self is important, but of itself, not sufficient for developing a pedagogy of teacher education (Korthagen, et al., 2001; Loughran, 2006; Ritter, 2007). Despite the superficial interpretations of those not involved in self-study but who often have opinions about the work as being too concerned with the self, this book makes clear that looking beyond the self is central to knowledge growth and development in ways that do make a difference for teaching and learning about mathematics teaching. In a previous self-study Schuck (2009) highlighted the value of listening to, and learning from, her students of teaching. Likewise, Pereira (2005) has illustrated how to learn from the tensions and dilemmas associated with learning about how to become a teacher of mathematics. Together they have created a formidable editorial team and have developed a quality product that in years to come will be seen as a seminal work in the field of self-study of teacher education practices in mathematics.
