General Information

Overview

Quality experiences and effective learning and teaching interactions are central to the development of children’s confident and purposeful use of Mathematical knowledge and skills in a wide range of situations. In this unit, you will develop knowledge of evidence-based pedagogical approaches that enhance the conceptual understanding and numerate thinking of children in early years and primary school settings. You will apply this knowledge to the analysis and evaluation of resources and teaching practices and devise modifications or improvements that enhance their impact on children’s proficiency in Mathematics. Special emphasis is given to the progression from concrete hands-on activities to symbolic and abstract representation of the four basic operations. In addition, this unit will provide opportunities for you to extend and refine your own Mathematical knowledge and confidence and reflect on your professional learning needs in relation to the effective teaching of Mathematics in early childhood education and care, and primary school settings.
