MAED 7595: Advanced Perspectives on School Mathematics II

3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: Admission to the MAT, M.Ed., or Ed.S. program
This course is for prospective and in-service 6-12 mathematics teachers with a strong undergraduate training in mathematics. It will connect advanced mathematics to the topics they will teach, while deepening understanding of fundamental ideas involving discrete mathematics, abstract algebra, matrices, vectors, and calculus, including historical perspectives. Students will engage in mathematical practices such as problem solving to develop conceptual understanding, reasoning abstractly and quantitatively, modeling with mathematics, and demonstrating the interconnectedness of mathematical ideas.
