• work cooperatively with Iowa and national certification and testing agencies to enhance the mathematical, pedagogical, and clinical preparation of teachers of mathematics at all levels with respect to criteria credentialing and licensing teachers in Iowa.
• work cooperatively with Iowa and national government agencies and policy setting groups on issues related to mathematics and mathematics teacher education.
• encourage research related to mathematics teacher education, especially research which identifies factors that contribute to improving the preparation and professional development of mathematics teachers at all levels.
• promote leadership among Mathematics Teacher Educators in the broad mathematics education community in Iowa.
• create awareness and knowledge of different pre-service mathematics teacher education programs and/ or professional development activities in the state of Iowa.
