Studies on culture, equity, and social justice issues in mathematics teacher preparation have called for preparing teachers to build on students' mathematical and cultural backgrounds. Yet few studies have examined the preparation of preservice teachers of color (PSTCs), especially those attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) or Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs). We present preliminary findings from a cross-site research project documenting PSTCs' perspectives on culture in mathematics education. We analyzed PSTCs' engagement in a culture unit during their mathematics methods course and their expressed views on cultures other than their own. Our findings reveal that these PSTCs often defined culture based on nationality and would repeat dominant deficit discourses about minoritized students. We provide insights for the importance of culture discussions in mathematics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
