In this paper, we present and discuss the proposal of the Study and Research Paths for Teacher Education (SRP-TE), which emerged in the framework of the Anthropological Theory of the Didactic (ATD), for Primary school teacher education. We focus on a case study about a course of Didactics of Mathematics for last-year pre-service teachers at Primary school, which focuses on professional question about the teaching of mathematical modelling. We select the case of the SRP-TE implemented in the last academic years (from 2016-17 to nowadays) in the University of Barcelona, which composes this last compulsory course on Didactics of Mathematics. On the one hand, we use the students’ reports delivered along the training activities and those delivered concerning the last SRP-TE about “The cake box” for the analysis of the modelling activity developed by preservice teachers. This allow us to describe and analyse the training processes implemented as well as the tools for the analysis and for the design that are transferred to preservice teachers. On the other hand, the analysis of a survey distributed to teachers when finishing the course (with a total of 257 answers) complement the previous analysis with their assessment and remarks about the different modules of an SRP-TE in relation to the professional questions addressed and the tools transferred all along the course.
