Abstract
How can mathematics teachers (MTs) be supported in teaching mathematics for climate justice (TMfCJ) if mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) lack climate-related expertise? In this paper, we challenge the assumption that such expertise is essential, and consider ways in which MTEs can use their existing expertise to support MTs in TMfCJ. The context of this study is a professional development programme for MTs in England where we examine how one MTE relates to ways of knowing about mathematics, pedagogy, climate justice and their intersections. Results suggest that the MTE’s existing expertise in relation to how MTs learn, together with her lack of climate-related expertise, enable an authentic co-inquiry where expertise relating to the intersection of mathematics teaching and climate justice can be co-created.
