MATH 204 - Mathematics for Education I

3 Credit Hours

This course is designed to provide a foundation of theory for many of the concepts found in the current elementary and middle school mathematics classroom. This course will examine topics related to the Real Number system, such as set theory, relations and functions, probability theory, and statistics, all from a problem solving approach. The use of technology (e.g. graphing calculator, word processing, the Internet, Sympodium, etc.) as tools for problem solving and course communication will be an integral part of the course. Reminder: A grade of ‘C’ in this course is a prerequisite for Mathematics for Education II at Pittsburg State University.
