<p>This unit follows on from Mathematics Curriculum 1 and focuses on curriculum and pedagogy in the Mathematics specialist teaching area for under-graduate pre-service teachers. It examines the congruence between pedagogy, curriculum and assessment. Pre-service teachers will be required to explore speciï¬c issues relating to current practice in the teaching of Mathematics in Years 7-10. They will be required to design and critically evaluate learning and assessment tasks, self-evaluate pedagogy, and conduct research in to key issues related to learning Mathematics in school. A particular focus will be the differentiation of learning of Mathematics.</p>
