    5.00 Credits
    Metropolitan State University of Denver

    1 (1 + 0) Prerequisite: MTH 3100 or MTH 3420 or Permission of instructor This is a seminar in mathematical problem solving. Students will investigate factors of problem solving, such as belief systems, control mechanisms, heuristics, and mathematical resources. This investigation will be carried out in the context of working on a collection of problems designed to illustrate these factors. Problems from the William Lowell Putnam National Mathematics Examination are included in this collection.

  • MTL 3600: Mathematics of the Elementary Curriculum

    5.00 Credits
    Metropolitan State University of Denver

    3 (3 + 0) Prerequisite/Corequisite: MTH 2620 This course approaches mathematical concepts outlined in Colorado Model Content Standard for Mathematics (grades K-5) from an advanced perspective. By examining video and written cases of children doing mathematics, students in this course will (1) connect their developing understanding to important mathematical concepts they will be required to teach; (2) turn their attention from understanding their own mathematical thinking, and the thinking of their classmates, to understanding the mathematical thinking of children; (3) lay the foundation for being able to learn mathematics from teaching.

  • MTL 3630: Teaching Secondary Mathematics

    5.00 Credits
    Metropolitan State University of Denver

    3 (3 + 0) Prerequisite: MTL 3620 or Permission of instructor Corequisite: MTL 3638 or permission of instructor This course examines teaching practice that supports conceptual understanding of mathematical ideas for all students in diverse classrooms. Prospective teachers who enroll in this course will analyze cases of teaching with particular attention to: planning for instruction; selecting and adapting curriculum materials; establishing classroom norms and expectations; fostering mathematical discourse; and assessing students' developing mathematical understanding. This course must be taken along with MTL 3638 in the semester immediately prior to MTL 4690. At the end of this course, students will have the intermediate to advanced skills in the selection, operation, and classroom use of technologies including graphing calculators, computers, and the Internet.

    Metropolitan State University of Denver

    2 (0 + 53) Prerequisite: MTL 3620 or Permission of instructor Corequisite: MTL 3630 or permission of instructor Prospective teachers enrolled in this course will spend at least 80 hours with a mentor teacher in a secondary mathematics classroom. During this time, prospective teachers will apply the mathematical knowledge base developed in the mathematics major and in MTL 3620, and the framework for teaching developed in MTL 3630, to the problems of practice that arise in public-school classrooms of diverse learners. Prospective teachers in this course will direct a Secondary Mathematics Lesson Study, a mini teacher work sample.

  • MTL 4690: Student Teaching and Seminar: Secondary

    12.00 Credits
    Metropolitan State University of Denver

    12 (1 + 42.7) Prerequisite: completion of all mathematics course work and all teacher education course work required for licensure; department approval of all GPA requirements; completion of Application for Student Teaching This course is a 16-week, full-time field experience with a skilled mathematics mentorteacher, supervised by an "MTL mentor," the official college supervisor, in an accredited secondary school. Prospective teachers who enroll in this course will, with the close and continual support of the mentor-teacher, take on increasing responsibility for, and learn from, all aspects of the work of a full-time mathematics teacher. Prospective teachers and their mentors will participate in two Secondary Mathematics Lesson Studies (which, together, constitute the teacher work sample), and in regular seminars conducted by the MTL mentor and other members of the Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences.
