masters of education In curriculum and instruction with a specialization in mathematics leading to professional teacher license in elementary education (1-6) or mathematics (1-6)

This program focuses on strengthening and deepening teachers' content knowledge in mathematics and provides participants with experience in inquiry learning in advanced mathematics content courses. The program encourages and supports teachers in becoming reflective learners and practitioners as well as keen assessors of their students' mathematical thinking.

PLEASE NOTE: Beginning with the Fall 2008 semester, all courses previously using the GMATH prefix will become CMATH; numbers and content will remain the same.
