EDMA309 Exploring Mathematics 2

10 cp

This unit, following on from Exploring Mathematics 1, uses a problem-solving approach and an emphasis on deep understanding of important mathematical content knowledge needed for teaching. In this case, the mathematical focus is on rational number (fractions, decimals, percentages), proportional reasoning, probability and statistics, and algebraic thinking and reasoning. There is a particular emphasis in content and assessment on real-world applications of mathematics. The kinds of approaches to teaching and learning advocated in Learning and Teaching Mathematics 1 and Learning and Teaching Mathematics 2 are modelled in this unit, where the desire is to increase the confidence and competence of students with mathematics.
