Learning outcomes
|
The purpose of the subject is to enable students to acquire basic competencies needed for teaching mathematics at lower secondary school. The aim is to be achieved by the application of the knowledge gained in the theory-based subjects, their transformation into professional skills, their further development in didactic applications within the framework of mathematics classes, and the adaptation of the knowledge gained in teaching competency subjects to the conditions of mathematics lessons. Students should get to understand the system of the teaching of mathematics at secondary schools and capture the basic trends regarding the development of the latter.
In this course of study, the students gain competence to easily deal with the learning environment of the primary school mathematics lessons, to manage pupils' work, to evaluate the training results, and to creatively modify the teaching methods that they apply in mathematics lessons, in compliance with the age, mental, and social needs of their pupils.
