To develop students as pre-service teachers with knowledge of how children best learn mathematics in the early and primary years of schooling and to enable them to plan and assess children in those learning environments.
Students will develop knowledge of children's construction of mathematical knowledge, processes and attitudes with insights gained from research and practice. Students as pre-service teachers will develop understanding of assessment strategies with an emphasis on authentic tasks and timely and constructive feedback. They will plan mathematical learning experiences for young children in preschool settings and individuals and small and whole class groups in primary settings, working with big ideas in number, space, measurement, chance and data, patterns and relationships, integrating thinking and communicating mathematically. They will be introduced to a variety of structured and informal materials, print and IT resources suitable for all children.
