Teaching Elementary School Math, Competency-Based Approach. Adams State College.
Evans, Carlton; And Others
The stated goals for the nine modules in this elementary math cluster, which is part of a series developed for the Adams State College Teacher Corps program, are that the intern will: (a) understand the scope and sequence of topics in elementary mathematics, (b) be familiar with a wide variety of activities and materials for use in a mathematics laboratory approach, (c) know various alternative approaches to teaching given mathematics topics, (d) utilize methods which convey understanding of concept rather than rote memorization, (e) realize that pupil attitudes toward a subject are as important as aptitude, (f) understand the relationship between mathematics and other elementary school curricula, and (g) know the relevance of prevalent learning theories to the specific area of mathematics. Each module contains a statement of the underlying rationale, the objectives for the module, enabling activities, and evaluation procedures. Module topics include set theory and operations, numbers, numeration systems, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, geometric concepts, fractions and decimals, measurement, problem solving, and evaluation of mathematics learning.
