EDMA2213

This course is the prerequisite to EDMA2217, EDMA3206 & EDMA3205.                                                            

This course provides an introduction to issues of learning generally and Mathematics learning in particular.  Each member of the course will work closely with an individual learner over a period of several weeks.

EDMA2214

This course is the prerequisite to EDMA2217, EDMA3206 & EDMA3205.                                                            

The purpose of this course is to extend students’ knowledge of mathematics working in a variety of ways, which will include the use of graphic calculators and computers. In carrying out this work, students will be encouraged to think about the experience of learning mathematics and consider the implications of this for their work as teachers.

EDMA2217

This course is the prerequisite to EDMA3217.                                                            

This course is designed to give participants insights of effective ways of presenting school mathematics to students in the lower grades at secondary schools. It builds on the content taught in EDMA2213 and EDMA2214 and highlights significant issues that emerge in mathematics teaching and learning. The course provides opportunities for the participants to plan for mathematics teaching and to critique mathematics teaching through the use of videotaped lessons with a view to having the participants reflect on their own teaching and to consider ways of improving their practice.

EDMA3205

This course aims to strengthen participants’ knowledge of the topics in the Optional section and to be able to apply sound pedagogy in order to enable   understanding on the part of students.

EDMA3206

This course aims to enable participants to experience investigating themselves and then develop the appropriate teaching skills for such work in their classrooms.

EDMA3217

In this course, participants will be exposed to educational research studies and literature that have explored some of these issues with a view to gaining a deeper understanding of the issues and developing action plans for their own practice in relation to these issues and others. 

EDME1001

This course is the prerequisite to EDME2201, EDME2204, EDME3201, EDME3202.                        

This course aims to give teachers some understanding of the nature of algebra and to develop skills and techniques common to CPE and A Level syllabuses which will be required for later mathematics courses.

EDME1002

This course is the prerequisite to EDME2201,EDME2203.                                                            

This course aims to allow teachers to appreciate the nature, purposes and history of Geometry in various forms in describing and working on properties of space.
