This paper presents the results of research aiming at discussing the relationship between mathematics teacher education and the development of project work in teaching practice. The data are taken from interviews with ten secondary and high school mathematics teachers as well as two questionnaires answered by each of them. It was possible to identify three different forms of working with projects: i) individually- teachers’ own initiative; ii) by school recommendation- in a fragmented manner; iii) collectively. There are no evidences that the pre-service education influenced their work with projects. This preference was developed during their careers through participation on in-service courses, practical experience, and personal characteristics. In-service teacher education was the main aspect which contributed for their preference.
