This course aims to provide students with concepts, theories, and principles of mathematics teaching, which are necessary for their teaching practice and further studies. Attention will be paid to the key ideas in four mathematics content areas (i.e., number and operations, algebra, geometry, and data analysis and probability) at both elementary and secondary levels, effective teaching strategies for implementing student-centered, content-based and technology-enhanced instruction. Lesson studies and exemplary teaching designs will also be emphasized. Pre-requisite: None

CILO-1: Describe the characteristics of modern mathematics teaching strategies CILO-2: Apply different research-based primary, secondary, and tertiary level mathematics teaching strategies. CILO-3: Use different research-based special needs mathematics teaching strategies.
