dc.description	Despite considerable variation in the processes and practices of initial preparation of teachers of mathematics and the extent and nature of support available for their continuing education and development, many fundamental challenges are shared across geographic boundaries. In this paper I draw on work that my colleagues and I are doing in the U.S to identify and discuss two foci of our work that may help others address problems and issues that appear to be endemic in mathematics teacher education around the world. The first is a focus on instructional practice as the lever for professional education of mathematics teachers; the second is a focus on the work of those who educate teachers of mathematics and on developing opportunities for them to improve their own practice. Keywords: Mathematics Education, Mathematics Teaching, Teacher Education, Teacher Professional Development<br>Apesar de consideráveis variações nos processos e práticas de preparação inicial de professores de matemática e na extensão e natureza do apoio que é dado à capacitação e à formação continuada dos mesmos, vários desafios fundamentais são comuns a muitos países. No presente artigo, apresento o trabalho que eu e meus colegas estamos desenvolvendo nos EUA para identificar e discutir dois focos de nossa pesquisa que podem auxiliar outros interessados a abordar problemas e questões de formação de professores de matemática que se manifestam em todo o mundo. O primeiro foco é o emprego da prática pedagógica como alavanca para o desenvolvimento profissional dos professores de matemática; o segundo é o trabalho daqueles que formam professores de matemática e a criação de oportunidades para que eles aperfeiçoem sua própria prática. Palavras-chave: Educação Matemática, Ensino de Matemática, Formação de Professores, Desenvolvimento Profissional.
