Elementary Mathematics Education

Catalog description

This course will focus on mathematics as a conceptual approach enabling children to acquire clear and stable concepts by constructing meanings in the context of physical situations and allows mathematical abstractions to emerge from empirical experiences. The students will be expected to integrate knowledge of mathematics, learning, pedagogy, students and assessment, and apply that knowledge to teaching mathematics in grades Pre-K through five in the context of the recommendations of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) and the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS).
