This study explores the critical consciousness of pre-service teachers in bilingual mathematics courses. It extends the research ''Transforming Finnish Classroom Teaching and Learning: Applying Content and Language Integrated Learning Approach to Mathematics Teaching and Learning'' (2023). Focusing on pre-service teachers enrolled in the ''General Mathematics'' mathematics course, this study investigates their critical awareness of local bilingual education policies, implementation, and experiences with CLIL mathematics courses. The primary analysis is based on voluntary submissions of personal reflective practice writings, with a final sample of 34 student texts out of 38. The results indicate that pre-service teachers' critical consciousness regarding bilingual education policies is manifested in reflections and critiques on various aspects, including bilingual teachers' professional competencies, national identity and language culture, and global and social environments. Their liberating reflections on CLIL mathematics experiences are connected to the dialectical generation between ''professional agency and structure'' across magical, naïve, and critical consciousness stages. The study concludes with two recommendations: pre-service teachers should be recognized as transformative intellectuals and regularly participate in policy translation, and they should acknowledge that learning mathematics through English as a medium of instruction is inherently a political activity. These insights are expected to foster further critical dialogue with local stakeholders. |
