IV. CATALOG DESCRIPTION:
|Pre-Requisites: |
|Admission to candidacy, Bachelor of Science, Early Childhood Education, and successful completion of MATH 2008 |
|Description: This course will provide early childhood teacher candidates with mathematical foundations in topics which include algebra concepts, mathematical|
|modeling, and logical reasoning. |
V. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK:
|Unit Philosophy: |
|A Gordon teacher is one who possesses the abilities, skills, knowledge, and confidence to inspire and enable each student to become a lifelong learner. A |
|more detailed explanation of the unit philosophy may be found at . |
| |
|Purposes and goals for Gordon’s Elementary Education Program are included at |
| . |
| |
|The Math 3001-3002-3003 courses are primarily mathematics content courses, but they should impact prospective teachers’ knowledge of curriculum, students, |
|learning environments, planning, and instructions, as well as professionalism and assessment. Elementary teachers must be aware of and proficient with Grades|
|preK-8 mathematics. |
| |
|Provided within the Common Core, the eight Standards for Mathematical Practice are: |
|Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. |
|Reason abstractly and quantitatively. |
|Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. |
|Model with mathematics. |
|Use appropriate tools strategically. |
|Attend to precision. |
|Look for and make use of structure. |
VI. GORDON LEARNING OUTCOMES:
|The entire toolkit of the Early Childhood Education Program is described by ten conceptual framework outcomes, organized within five categories of the |
|Georgia Framework for Teaching. Each outcome contains four indicators, with the fourth indicator related to dispositions. In summary, there are thirty |
|indicators related to the knowledge and skills essential to teaching for learning, and ten indicators of dispositions inherent within great teachers. On the|
|chart below, the ECE program outcomes and indicators are summarized and linked to sources of evidence that will be evaluated in this course. |
