PREFACE
It is an honor to follow Terry Wood, series editor of the first edition of the four
volume International Handbook of Mathematics Teacher Education (2008), as se-
ries editor of this second edition of the Handbook. As Terry indicated, she, Barbara
Jaworski, Sandy Dawson and Thomas Cooney played key roles in opening up the
field of mathematics teacher education “to establish mathematics teacher education
as an important and legitimate area of research and scholarship” (Wood, 2008, p. vii).
The field has grown significantly since the late 1980s “when Barbara Jaworski initi-
ated and maintained the first Working Group on mathematics teacher education at
PME [Psychology of Mathematics Education conference]” (p. vii) and over the last
10 years following the first edition of the Handbook. So, the editorial team, I and
the four volume editors (Kim Beswick, Salvador Llinares, Gwendolyn Lloyd, and
Despina Potari), of this second edition is honored to present it to the mathematics
education community and to the field of teacher education in general.
This second edition builds on and extends the topics/ideas in the first edition
while maintaining the themes for each of the volumes. Collectively, the authors
looked back beyond and within the last 10 years to establish the state-of-the-art
and continuing and new trends in mathematics teacher and mathematics teacher
educator education, and looked forward regarding possible avenues for teachers,
teacher educators, researchers, and policy makers to consider to enhance and/or fur-
ther investigate mathematics teacher and teacher educator learning and practice, in
particular. The volume editors provide introductions to each volume that highlight
the subthemes used to group related chapters, which offer meaningful lenses to see
important connections within and across chapters. Readers can also use these sub-
themes to make connections across the four volumes, which, although presented
separately, include topics that have relevance across them since they are all situated
in the common focus regarding mathematics teachers.
I extend special thanks to the volume editors for their leadership and support in
preparing this handbook. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work
with them on this project. Also, on behalf of myself and the volume editors, sincere
thanks to all of the authors for their invaluable contributions and support in working
with us to produce a high-quality handbook to inform and move the field of mathe-
matics teacher education forward.
Volume 2, Tools and Processes in Mathematics Teacher Education, edited by Sal-
vador Llinares, describes and analyze various promising tools and processes, from
different perspectives, aimed at facilitating the mathematics teacher learning and
development. It provides insights of how mathematics teacher educators think about

and approach their work with teachers. Thus, as the second volume in the series,
it broadens our understanding of the mathematics teacher and their learning and
teaching.
