EDMST6025 Mathematics Content and Pedagogy 1
This is the first in a series of two units to help out-of-field and non-specialist mathematics teachers develop the knowledge and skills to teach mathematics in years 5-10. In this unit, students will reflect on the nature of mathematical understanding and thinking and use it to inform mathematics teaching practices. Students will reflect on their beliefs about mathematics and mathematics teaching and learning, examine mathematical knowledge for teaching, know how students learn mathematics and use curriculum to plan learning experiences for school students. The content will focus on number and algebra, and mathematical proficiencies (working mathematically).
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $578
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $578
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
