“…By teacher competence, we refer to the various ways that texts depict teachers' competencies, approaches, etc., as needed in order to be ready to teach all kinds of students. For example, assumptions are made in several segments that it is crucial to enhance the knowledge base for teachers regarding students in need of support or with learning disabilities (e.g., Hinton, Flores, Burton, & Curtis, 2015;Moscardini, 2015;Van Ingen et al, 2016). We interpret this as meaning that the themes are about teacher quality, and the connections between themes suggest a 'higher' purpose, namely, the reassurance of providing opportunities to learn for all students in mathematics classrooms.…”
