Abstract

Nowadays, teaching in upper secondary education, specifically in the area of mathematics, is carried out by a great variety of professionals with diverse profiles within their initial training. The problem lies in the fact that most of these professionals have not been trained with a teaching profile to meet the requirements demanded by this level. That is why educational mathematics, in its eagerness to contribute to the professional development of active teachers, proposes the Mathematics Teacher's Specialized Knowledge (MTSK) model, which aims to reflect on the knowledge that a mathematics teacher should possess to perform this work in a specialized manner and for the benefit of students. The presentation of this model is the subject of this article.
