MATH 1341: Mathematics for Elementary Teachers II
University of North Carolina, Charlotte
Develops elementary teachers' understanding of four fundamental, interrelated concepts in elementary mathematics: geometry, measurement and data, ratios and proportions, and algebraic reasoning.�Students use proportional reasoning to solve problems involving ratios, compare ratios, interpret unit rates, and solve problems involving percentages.�Students understand how algebraic reasoning develops in the elementary grades through sequences and pattern recognition followed by the development of expressions and equations.�Students re-conceptualize definitions and properties of polygons and polyhedral including the concepts of perimeter, area, surface area, volume, transformation, and congruence and similarity. Students develop their understanding of the organization, representation, and analysis of data along with measures of central tendency and variation. The content will be taught through a problem-solving approach.
