MAED 402Student Teaching In Mathematic3
This course is designed to provide supervision in the content area for pre-service secondary mathematics candidates. Prerequisite: Departmental Approval.
Methods, materials, and experiences to equip students to teach mathematics in a variety of settings, relevant to early childhood and elementary levels. The activities of the course will develop techniques and strategies of teaching concepts associated with sets, numeration systems, geometry, arithmetic operation, measurements, functions and relations, graphs, logic, number theory and patterns, probability and statistics. Concepts from the psychology of learning will be explored. Prerequisite: MATH 230.
A study of modern instructional strategies for teaching, planning and directing mathematics in the middle school. Prerequisites: EDUC 202 Introduction to Teaching II.
A study of modern instructional strategies for teaching, planning and directing mathematics learning in secondary schools. A comparative analysis of national and state mathematics teaching standards is conducted. (Students are strongly recommended to complete EDUC 201 and EDUC 202 before taking this course.) Prerequisite: MATH 299, MATH 360.
Selected mathematical principles and concepts for teaching mathematics at elementary grade levels. Emphasis will be on instructional methods and technological supplements as outlined by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the Virginia State Board of Education. Students will be provided the opportunity to select, create, and evaluate topics, materials, and strategies in teaching elementary school mathematics.
Selected mathematical principles and concepts for teaching mathematics at middle school grade levels. Emphasis will be on instructional methods and technological supplements as outlined by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the Virginia State Board of Education. Students will be provided the opportunity to select, create, and evaluate topics, materials, and strategies in teaching middle school mathematics.
A study of the historical development of K-12 mathematics curriculum and instruction including current trends and issues in the study of mathematics pedagogy.
An examination of theoretical and empirical research in the field of mathematics education including the study of the philosophy and psychology of teaching and learning mathematics and an overview of research design.
Provides an opportunity for the exploration of an area of interest in the teaching of mathematics through systematic observation, reflection, and analysis of a field experience in a K-12 classroom setting. Basic inquiry-based research ideas will be examined with a follow-up field study aimed at increasing understanding of theoretical and practical issues in the mathematical knowledge needed for and pedagogical skills about teaching mathematics.
A course permitting the student to pursue topics of special interest, which may not be available through other, formal courses or which may be needed at a time when other courses are not offered. Course may be taken for credit no more than two times.
Project must be approved by mathematics education faculty prior to registration. Students are encouraged to obtain an internship with an education-based provider (school, district office, state office, etc.). In the event that a formal internship is not feasible students will participate in a collaborative real world or simulated education-based project. Successful completion of the project will result in a written report including overview of current relevant literature / research, compiled field notes, and summary research paper.
Each student completes a master’s thesis in Mathematics Education with the aid of an advisor and committee. A broad range of topics and methods of inquiry can be used to meet the requirement including quantitative and qualitative case studies, historical studies, and action research.
