The project aims to establish a common core framework for the education of upper-secondary mathematics teachers by fostering collaboration among researchers in Mathematics Teacher Education within the 4EU+ community. The project has several objectives: (1) building a community of researchers, (2) recognizing practices at participating universities, (3) developing tools to compare the mathematics pedagogical content knowledge (MPCK) of students, and (4) conducting a feasibility study for the development of research-based common teaching practices in Teacher Education programs. The project will map the different routes taken by European countries to qualify mathematics teachers and identify similarities and differences. This will enable the design of assessment items to compare the MPCK of graduating students in leading mathematics teacher education programs. Additionally, involving research-oriented students in Teacher Education programmes will promote internationalization and facilitate the assessment of the feasibility of common educational activities and large-scale research projects in European Teacher Education programs.
