Mathematics building blocks for numeracy
Purpose
This professional learning assists teachers to implement evidenced-based practices in support of improved student numeracy outcomes. There are four courses in the program - each course has an eLearning component and then a deliverable that is recorded in a participant journal.
Who should participate?
Kindergarten to Year 8 teachers.
Mode of delivery
eLearning.
Content
Completing this eLearning will help teachers to:
- investigate the mathematical knowledge that is foundational to becoming numerate
- explore evidenced-based pedagogies that promote effective teaching of mathematics
- consider approaches to assessment that reveal student's mathematical knowledge
- learn how to differentiate teaching activities to meet student needs.
There are four courses in the suite
Course 1: Effective mathematics teaching for numeracy development
Course 2: Learning progressions as a tool to support student numeracy development
Course 3: Principles of effective assessment
Course 4: Planning for differentiated learning
