Geometric Structures for Teachers

Catalog description

The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) explains in its Principles and Standards (2000) that “geometry and spatial sense are fundamental components of mathematics learning.” This course is designed to prepare the teachers to create learning environments conducive to meeting the national and state standards regarding geometry. Topics include characteristics of 2 and 3 dimensional shapes, mathematical proofs, spatial relationships, transformations and symmetry.
