Credit points: 15
Subject outline
This subject focusses on the importance of early intervention in the identification of individual student's exceptional abilities and learning difference in mathematical concepts. Pre Service Teachers (PSTs) will interpret multiple methods of numeracy assessment tools to identify and understand individual difficulties with mathematical concepts and numeracy skills. PSTs will apply teaching strategies that are responsive to a variety of learning differences evident when students engage with the learning of mathematical concepts and will explore teaching strategies that differentiate the way the curriculum is taught to accommodate for a variety of learning abilities in mathematics. PSTs will enhance and extend their teaching skills to develop individualised learning goals and teaching strategies for students with learning differences in mathematics, evaluating teaching programs to improve learning.
