Course Description

Mathematics (Primary/Junior) Part 3 builds on Parts 1 and 2 and focuses on leadership in Primary/Junior mathematics at the board or district level. Explore strategies to implement large scale projects and initiatives in mathematics, and to support teachers' professional learning as they implement the 2020 Mathematics curriculum and improve students' mathematic skills. You'll have the opportunity to undertake a Board- or District-focused action research project in mathematics and practice research techniques: completing a literature review, setting the problem, designing and implementing the methodology, gathering data, writing, then presenting the research. Learning from your own and others' research, you'll leave the course with knowledge and skills to undertake mathematics leadership in K-6 schools.
