MATH 619 - Advanced Perspectives

Institution:

Millersville University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Mathematics

Description:

Course is for secondary mathematics teachers at the middle or high school level who wish to explore the nature of the mathematics that they teach from a different viewpoint. The course will look at typical secondary mathematics topics including the real number system, polynomials, number theory, trigonometry and Euclidean geometry while examining concept analysis, problem analysis and mathematical connections. The course will actively involve in-service and pre-service teachers in a productive dialogue about the mathematics that they teach, and potential developmental or extensions that could be put into practice at each level. The class will also explore a variety of levels at which it may be appropriate to address these issues with their own students.
