Mathematics Education

Features of the program

The M.Ed. in Mathematics Education degree has two programs, 5–8 Mathematics Education and 7–12 Mathematics Education. Middle school teachers may select either program, as both are appropriate to that educational level. Both programs are designed to strengthen the mathematics and pedagogical background of the M.Ed. candidate in the program. The program also seeks to raise students' awareness of current thinking in the field of mathematics education and in education in general. The goals of the program are to:

  • Have candidates deepen their own mathematical knowledge
  • Have candidates broaden their teaching strategies and techniques
  • Encourage candidates to consider their goals and broaden their professional background by completing selected professional education offerings
  • Offer candidates an opportunity to do course work in an area not previously considered
  • Encourage candidates to complete courses pertinent to their teaching assignments.
