his brief research report advocates integrating social justice into mathematics education for elementary pre-service teachers (EPSTs). It highlights the importance of this integration in addressing mathematics anxiety and improving attitudes toward mathematics. The report also discusses how negative attitudes and mathematics anxiety can hinder PSTs’ ability to teach mathematics effectively, stressing the necessity to incorporate mathematics applications into education method courses. Furthermore, it underscores the relevance of integrating social justice topics into the pre-service teacher mathematics curricula to promote critical thinking and humanization, thereby aiding in addressing educational disparities and promoting confidence in teaching numerical skills. This approach can potentially transform PSTs’ attitudes toward mathematics, alleviate mathematics anxiety, and enhance their teaching practices in elementary classrooms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
