EML 435 Mathematics: Number Sense and Theory (CM)
Math endorsement students develop a conceptual understanding of and procedural facility with operations, number systems, ratios, and proportional relationships. Topics include the structure, properties, characteristics of and relationships between number systems including whole numbers, integers, rational, real, and complex numbers; operations of different number systems and their properties; representation, modeling, properties, and operations of vectors and matrices; the progressions of learning in base-ten number system and operations, fractions and rational numbers, and real numbers; ratios and proportional relationships, and additive and multiplicative perspectives; ratios, rates, and proportions; representation and analysis of proportional relationships using tables, graphs, equations, diagrams, concrete and mathematical models. Upon successful completion, student have improved skills needed to help make K-12 students college and career ready in geometry and measurement.
Outcomes
- This course will prepare students to
- Develop conceptual understanding of and procedural facility with operations, number systems, ratios, and proportional relationships.
