MAT 119 - Mathematics for Elementary Education I


An exploration of order of operations, in-depth work with fractions – visually, computationally, conceptually; graphing lines, visual display of data using graphs; measures of central tendency, geometry of polygons and circles, perimeter, area, volume, and surface area of solids. Students are expected to explain the material as thought to a target audience. Course uses collaborative learning extensively, along with individual projects. Intended only for Elementary education majors.
