| Abstract: |
To achieve academic goals, preservice teachers need to learn how to effectively delay gratification in the face of conflicting desires, aspirations, and distractions. As learners, preservice mathematics teachers need to self‐regulate their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in the pursuit of valued academic and professional goals and facilitate self‐regulated learning (SRL) so that their students are better equipped to reach their academic goals. In this chapter, we review research on academic delay of gratification situated within SRL theory and focus on its implications and strategies for preparing and supporting preservice secondary mathematics teachers.
