EDDL 259 - Geometry for Middle School Educators Online
|
This course is for middle school teachers to encourage ongoing professional development that will build on and expand current knowledge and understanding of geometry. Throughout this course, students will link the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Principles and Standards for teaching Geometry to middle school students to their individual state standards so that they can delve more intentionally into geometric content and processes. Investigating strategies for developing mathematical literacy and fostering logical thinking will set the stage for future student learning. In addition, students will explore, discuss and apply research-based teaching strategies for teaching Geometry and mathematics in all modules.
Registrants are responsible for ordering the following materials for this course:
