Abstract

This paper reports on a research project based on designing and teaching in-service courses for Non-Specialist Teachers of Mathematics (NSTM). An NSTM is a school teacher who qualified to teach in a subject other than mathematics, yet teaches mathematics in secondary school (11-16 year old students). While the overall aim of our research was to describe what constitutes a trajectory towards a mathematics teacher identity for a NSTM, in this paper we explain how we sought indicators of a mathematics teacher identity. We do so by first describing how we adapted Wenger’s notion of identity and advanced our ‘Modes of Belonging’ Mathematics Teacher Identity framework. After that we exemplify how we used our framework to locate indicators of mathematics teacher identity in the data from a narrative of NSTMs working on a particular piece of mathematics.
