EMT5000 Curriculum Perspectives: Number and Chance and Data
SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
Credit Points: 15
 
Description:

This unit, for graduate teachers who wish to re-train in the teaching of mathematics from Year 7 to Year 10, will position lower secondary mathematics curricula against some essential upper school content knowledge necessary for good teaching. It thus teaches some necessary mathematics content skills, and also provides a refresher and a consolidation of previously held skills. In this unit, a minimum level of competence in Year 10A mathematics content in the Australian Curriculum strands of Statistics and Probability, and some aspects of Number and Algebra and Measurement and Geometry, will be sought. Students will be encouraged to reach the highest mathematical level of which they are individually capable, in order to best place them for teaching lower secondary mathematics.
