ELE 202 CM 1 - Mathematics I
This module is the first part of a two semester sequence designed to give students an in-depth knowledge of mathematics in elementary schools. Topics in elementary mathematics will be examined from a problem solving and conceptual framework with a view to in-depth understanding of these topics and their interrelationships. Topics will include sets, numeration systems, computatioal methods, algebraic concepts and number theory. Emphasis will be placed on the use of manipulatives and technology for gaining understanding and solving problems. The approach will integrate the understanding of these topics and their interrelationships with the approaches to teaching these topics in (K-6) classrooms. This is a required content module for all elementary education majors.
