The course will include: • issues relating to general problems of science teaching, and teaching in general, • more specific issues relating to education mathematics, referred to middle and Secondary school - from eleven to eightenn years olds - and • a critical (technical and cultural) review of some areas of mathematics, with connections to the use of different computing resources.
The course of Didactics of Mathematics (1st part) tackles both general problems of (scientific and non) teaching and a (technical and cultural) critical review of some areas of mathematics, even in connection with the use of the various computer resources.
The course aims at providing students with theoretical tools that may help them to frame the teaching and learning processes in mathematics classrooms.
Learning outcomes:
- students will develop didatical knowledge aimed at framing the teaching and learnin processes
- students will apply their knowledge to plan and analyze learning sequences
- students will use their knowledge to critically analyze textbooks and other teaching resources
- students will acquire a specialized language to communicate with specialists and non-specialists
The course will have both lecture lessons and group work with discussions
Content:
Power point presentation, worksheeets and reading resources will be provided on aulaweb
