Course description
This course aims to prepare students to teach senior mathematics (Years 11-12) up through and including Mathematics A. The focus of the course is on developing meaningful learning activities which focus on developing understanding through the applications of mathematics and that do not require an indepth knowledge of calculus. The first portion of the course will develop students' broad understandings of mathematics education relevant for teaching senior secondary mathematics, the mathematics curriculum and the pedagogies associated with teaching specific topics in the curriculum for Prevocational Mathematics and Mathematics A. The second semester will focus on working with students with diverse learning needs, assessment moderation, ICTs, and professional learning.
