Abstract
This chapter develops the idea that learning to become a teacher of science and mathematics is a lifelong process. The science and mathematics teacher or educator who as an individual engages her students emotionally and intellectually in teaching the subject, involves herself in continuous learning in two main areas: 1) pedagogical content knowledge, PCK (Gess-Newsome & Lederman, 1999; Shulman, 1986), and 2) development of becoming a transformative intellectual (Aronowitz & Giroux, 1993; Giroux & Simon, 1989) practicing critical pedagogy (Freire, 1998; McLaren & Kincheloe, 2007).
