Mathematics and Science Education

Overview

Subjects include teaching science and mathematics through digital technologies and in connection with other disciplines such as engineering or focus on communication and learning that takes place outside the school environment. You’ll gain an understanding of how these approaches require fundamental reconsideration of the goals of science and mathematics education, their curricula and approaches to pedagogy and assessment.
