Candidates examine an integrated approach to the teaching of mathematics, science and technology. Mathematical reasoning, numbers and numeration, operations, modeling, and multiple representations, measurement, uncertainty, patterns and functions will be studied in the context of problem solving. The candidate will learn strategies to integrate mathematical content with science content in life, physical sciences, technology tools, and design. Constructivist and project based teaching and assessment techniques will be guiding principles throughout the course. The candidate will learn research-based strategies to address the needs of diverse learners in the context of reflexive practice. Field observations and experiences are required and integrated into the course.
