EDC-5630: Math Methods-Elementary

This course explores the content and pedagogy of elementary mathematics. It is based on the premise that everyone can learn, and that mathematics can be accessible and enjoyable if understanding is derived from experience and strong links are made between experience and abstract ideas and symbols. Beginning with a consideration of how children learn mathematics, the course will focus on providing children with opportunities to develop mathematical ideas over time. Using concrete materials and hands on experiences, students will become actively involved with problems from a range of mathematical strands (number sense, pattern, geometry, measurement, probability) to illustrate how children can explore mathematics through problem solving and inquiry.
