This unit gives students an opportunity to observe and to work closely with mathematically gifted children and their teachers. Students will observe an upper primary group working in a mathematics enrichment program in order to reflect upon the particular needs of children with innate mathematical expertise, and to witness excellent teaching practice. This experience will also engender discussions around mathematics as a discipline, and engage students in the preparation of authentic mathematics learning activities.
(Students must pass 2 units from MAE2240, MAE3260 OR Students must pass 2 units from ECM2260, ECM3260 OR Students must pass 2 units from MAE2110, MAE3110)
