Call for papers: Special Issue “Teaching-research in mathematics education: secondary–tertiary transition”

The subject of research concerning university-level mathematics education has emerged as a significant area of interest within the broader field of mathematics education research in recent decades (Gueudet, 2023). This has meant that some of the most important international conferences in this field of knowledge have begun to devote some of their working groups or specific meetings to this topic in recent years. This encourages mathematics education research to also take into account the potential difficulties that may arise in the transition from secondary to university education.
Recent studies point to some of these problems, the introduction of advanced mathematical processes, such as generalisations, deductions, and complex mathematical objects, such as, definitions, proofs, etc. (Bloch & Gibel, 2019, Leviatan, 2008); students’ beliefs (Carmichael & Taylor, 2005), the wide range of challenges faced by them (Bressoud et al., 2016, Clark & Lovric, 2009); or the difference between the teachers and professors involved in both stages of education (Ghedamsi & Lecorre, 2021, Hong et al., 2009, Wade et al., 2016). Therefore, this special issue, “Teaching-research in mathematics education: secondary–tertiary transition”, aims to provide relevant studies, in which research and teaching practice build a process of transformation of the current relationships between secondary and university education, highlighting the bridge between both stages.

Deadline for submission of title and abstract: 15 January, 2026.
