MATH 5531 - Number Systems and Proportional Reasoning for Middle Grades Teachers This course provides an opportunity for middle school teachers to enhance their ability to reason proportionally through explorations of linearity and right triangle trigonometry with a focus on inquiry and the use of digital tools. Attention will be given to multiple representations (e.g., verbal descriptions, table of values, graphs, and symbolic function rules) of the proportional relationships. Similarities and differences among the systems on integers, rational numbers, and real numbers will also be examined along with the historical development of these number systems.
Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: MATH 1500, MATH 1510, MATH 2650, and MATH 3520 (MATH 3520 may be taken concurrently); with a grade of “B” or better in all prerequisites, or instructor approval.
Credits: 4 hours
Restrictions Restricted to majors and minors in Elementary/Middle School Mathematics. Notes: Open to upperclass and graduate students.
