Abstract
This study examines the impact of cumulative experiences and beliefs during the school career on the pedagogical development of future mathematics teachers in Chile. A sample of 252 pedagogy students from 18 higher education institutions participated in the study, completing a questionnaire that focused on instructional paradigms, teaching experiences, and pedagogical practices. The research employed latent class analysis to identify distinct profiles based on the teaching paradigms experienced by the participants. A logistic regression model further corroborated these profiles. The findings indicate a prevalent inclination towards constructivist beliefs and practices among future teachers, which are significantly shaped by their secondary education experiences, often devoid of a constructivist approach. This study emphasizes the critical role of prior educational experiences in shaping professional competencies in teaching mathematics. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
