CI 512 Examining Operations with Whole Numbers & Fractions
Course Description
Examine the actions and situations modeled by the four basic operations. Begin with a view of how counting moves toward solving whole number problems and then how whole number operations extend to the context of fractions. Student thinking is at the center of this course through examination of student work.
