Abstract

This paper describes the design of a short professional development course for prospective mentors of mathematics teachers. A vignette activity sequence approach that promoted the use of topic specific mathematics education research was employed, as a means of supporting the course participants to critically reflect on, and make explicit their own teaching practices. We present and discuss the various components of the course, and account for how such a design served the purpose of encouraging the participants to be introspective of their ability to provide explanations and examples that place the teaching of specific mathematics topics at the heart of mentor-mentees conversations.
