Handbook

In this course you will build on the knowledge, skills and understanding developed in EDST6779 Mathematics 1. The focus is on Stages 2 and 3 in the NESA K-10 Mathematics syllabus. You will engage in findings from contemporary research to explore pedagogical strategies suitable for growth in student understanding of numeracy and how this understanding supports mathematical understanding across Stages 2 and 3. Formative and summative assessment strategies suitable for this age group are included, along with skills needed to identify and analyse a range of data about students’ progress. You will also consider how to support learners as they transition to Stage 4 in mathematics.
