How Can I Teach Math and Numeracy for All Learners?

Catalog description

In this module, emerging teachers are prepared to teach math to diverse learners in various grades. We examine theoretical and practical issues with an emphasis on creating classroom communities where students develop a positive disposition towards the subject. Attention focuses on the development of number sense and student habits to engage productively in mathematical sense-making and problem-solving. We explore pedagogically driven models of learning, use multiple lenses to construct practical, grounded, and equity-based approaches to teaching math.
