MATH 1351 - Mathematics for Teachers II
This course is intended to build or reinforce a foundation in fundamental mathematics concepts and skills. It includes the concepts of geometry, measurement, probability, and statistics with an emphasis on problem solving and critical thinking.
NOTE: This course is for education/teaching majors only and is a required part of the approved field of study curriculum for EC-6 and EC-12 Special Education teacher certification.
Learning Outcomes: Upon successful completion, students will be able to:
- Apply fundamental terms of geometry such as points, lines, and planes to describe two and three dimensional figures.
- Make and test conjectures about figures and geometric relationships.
- Use a variety of methods to identify and justify congruence and similarity of geometric objects.
- Perform geometric transformations.
- Demonstrate fundamental probability techniques and apply those techniques to solve problems.
- Explain the use of data collection and statistics as tools to reach reasonable conclusions.
- Recognize, examine, and utilize the basic principles of describing and presenting data.
- Perform measurement processes and explain the concept of a unit of measurement.
- Develop and use formulas for the perimeter, area, and volume for a variety of figures.
