Module One: Learning Theory and Evolving Practices in Mathematics Instruction
Module One: Learning Theory and Evolving Practices in Mathematics Instruction
In this module participants will intentionally consider their own beliefs and practices regarding what mathematics is important to learn and how children learn mathematics. They will develop an understanding of current research and the Ontario context regarding effective learning and teaching of mathematics. They will understand the intentionality in the shift in how we are teaching mathematics differently to support student learning, and revisit personal beliefs and practices to consider alignment with current research and educational theory.
OCT Expectations: B1, B2, B3, B11, B14, D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D7, D9, D14, F9

Developing a Vision of Effective Mathematics Learning and Teaching 10%
This assignment will allow participants to monitor and reflect deeply upon their vision of effective mathematics learning and teaching. They will compare their own beliefs and practices with those outlined in international research and in Ontario Ministry of Education publications. Participants will create a visual/digital representation of their understanding and beliefs at the beginning of the course, including wonderings and question. Participants will revise and refine this representation at the midpoint and end of the course. A summative reflection will be submitted synthesizing their evolving understanding of effective mathematics learning and teaching.
