En: Joint Meeting 4 - 233 of PME 38 and PME-NA 36,Vol. 4, pp. 233-240. Vancouver, Canada: PME.http://hdl.handle.net/10272/8768This paper considers infinity as an element of professional knowledge. We assume that teachers need a wider knowledge of the topic than that they possess as mathematics students. Using three models of professional knowledge, Mathematics Teacher’s Specialised Knowledge (MTSK), Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT), and Knowledge Quartet (KQ), we discuss how the notions being proposed in these models, and on which they are constructed, might contribute to studying teachers ’ knowledge of infinity.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/conference outputopen access
