Abstract

A project conducted in six Australian universities was designed to foster interdisciplinary collaboration between mathematicians and mathematics educators in pre-service teacher education programmes. This paper reports on two approaches to integrating mathematics content and pedagogy arising from these collaborations: co-developed and co-taught courses, and communities of practice linking pre-service and graduate teachers. The findings illustrate ways of increasing interdisciplinary understanding in preparing future teachers of mathematics.
