A unique feature of this self-study was the simultaneous use of narrative inquiry as a research method and a pedagogical tool used with prospective teachers. By juxtaposing my own learning experiences with prospective teachers’ learning into accounts of practice I have reconceptualised my approach to mathematics teacher education in terms of establishing an inquiry landscape for co-learning. Three core features of this landscape are outlined to illustrate the potential of self-study to foster critical reflection that impacts on practice. The implications for mathematics teacher educators, and the programs they develop, are threaded throughout the paper.
