Editorial board members of the MTE
journal join the presidents of the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators
(AMTE) and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) (the two
organizations that jointly publish this journal) in expressing concern at the
recent attacks on mathematics education scholars whose research does not
conform with and challenges dominant perspectives in mathematics education. Board
members are compelled to speak up because these attacks undermine the
principles of academic freedom and our field’s capacity to grow a trusted
knowledge base.
