C I 4085 - Teaching High School Mathematics (3)


When Offered: Fall
This course prepares prospective secondary mathematics teachers to understand effective mathematics curricula based on national, state, and program standards, and to implement effective instruction and assessment in grades 8-12. Major topics include current research in mathematics education, understanding abilities of diverse learners, instructional strategies (including interpreting secondary mathematics content for learners), applying instructional technology, assessing learning, and secondary classroom management. An instructional design plan (IDP) will be created and at least two lessons from that IDP will be taught to students during the internship. Students will have an internship experience in public school classrooms. It is strongly advised that all other requirements for licensure (except student teaching) be completed prior to the methods course. A grade of “C” (2.0) or higher must be earned in this class to proceed in teacher education.
