Mathematics for Teachers
Mathematics for Teachers
What mathematical knowledge should elementary and secondary teachers have? We will investigate recent research that describes specialized mathematical content knowledge for teaching. Participants in this course will also strengthen and deepen their own mathematical understanding in a student-centered workshop setting. Readings include Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics by Liping Ma as well as readings from the Journal for Research in Mathematics Education. Anyone interested in mathematics education at any level is welcome. (Not open to students who have taken MATH 1003)
