：在教师教育方案和数学教育领域，对社会正义问题的关注日益突出(例如，怀特、克雷斯波和民事，2016)。此外，学者们认为，与其在单一课程(通常是“多元文化”课程)中保持孤立，还不如将社会正义的重点整合到教师教育项目中(McDonald&Zeichner，2009)。这就要求数学教师教育工作者在他们的数学内容和方法课程中准备好解决社会正义问题。关于社会公正数学教育的文献中有多种观点(Wager&Stinson，2012)。在我的工作中，我专注于培养能够将数学与现实世界背景联系起来的教师，这些背景涉及探索、分析和提出解决当前社会和政治问题的方案(例如，Gutstein，2006)--我将其称为社会政治数学教学。通过借鉴现有文献和我自己的经验，我确定了教师和数学教师教育工作者必须利用的知识基础，以制定社会政治数学。我提供了从事社会政治数学教学的工具，从我自己的实践中讨论了一个具体的例子，并提出了一个思考社会政治数学教学所需知识的框架。
: Attention to issues of social justice is becoming increasingly prominent in teacher education programs and in the field of mathematics education (e.g., White, Crespo, & Civil, 2016). Moreover, scholars have argued that instead of remaining isolated in a single course (typically the “multicultural” course), a focus on social justice must be integrated throughout teacher education programs (McDonald & Zeichner, 2009). This requires that mathematics teacher educators be prepared to address social justice in their mathematics content and methods courses. There are a variety of perspectives in the literature on social justice mathematics education (Wager & Stinson, 2012). In my work I focus on preparing teachers who can connect mathematics to real-world contexts that involve exploring, analyzing, and proposing solutions for current social and political issues (e.g., Gutstein, 2006)—which I refer to as sociopolitical mathematics teaching. By drawing on existing literature and my own experiences, I identify the knowledge bases that teachers and mathematics teacher educators must draw on in order to enact sociopolitical mathematics. I provide tools for engaging in sociopolitical mathematics teaching, discuss a concrete example from my own practice, and propose a framework for thinking about the knowledge needed for sociopolitical mathematics teaching.
