Abstract
This paper provides an augmented recount of the plenary address I gave at the 2018 CMESG conference, about an Australian project that brought together mathematics educators and mathematicians to design new interdisciplinary approaches to initial teacher education. It draws on conversations I had with conference participants before and after my talk—conversations that caused me to reflect on the circumstances that led to the project as well as implications for the future. Thus the paper is organised in three main sections: Prologue, Project, and Epilogue. The Prologue looks back on key experiences that, in hindsight, prepared me to envision and lead the project. The section describing the Project explains its theoretical rationale, design, and outcomes. The Epilogue considers the potential impact of this work.
