About the Course
Mathematics is a challenging and demanding subject within the school curriculum. On this largely school-based course, you develop the skills to teach a broad spectrum of mathematical concepts using a variety of approaches, including a focus on building thinking skills through investigational, collaborative and problem-solving activities.
In your taught sessions, you attend lectures and seminars designed to develop your awareness and understanding of professional issues; the nature and content of the mathematics curriculum; and the role of Information Communication Technology (ICT) in relation to mathematics and aspects of teaching such as planning and assessment.
