Subject didactic consolidation in mathematics

Aim
The students recognise the connections between numerics and geometry and use the linking possibilities for didactic implementation. In this course, they deal with the requirements of initial teaching and expand their subject didactic repertoire for the derivation and conversion of quantities. They get to know methods for working on factual tasks and creating their own interdisciplinary learning products and expand their skills in realising their own learning environments. They recognise learning processes and evaluate corresponding achievements in a criterion-oriented and appreciative manner.
Content
- Networking of numerics and geometry
- Length, area, and space measures as well as time, measures of capacity, measures of mass, and currency
- Working out the perimeter, area, surface area, and volume of geometric figures
- Beginning mathematics
- Factual tasks (text comprehension, modelling process, solution strategies)
- Learning and discovery environments in mathematics for all pupils
- Learning supportive feedback and specific subject-related summative and formative performance assessment in mathematics
- Action-oriented strategies and activities in content-integrative mathematics instruction to initiate rational thinking processes and to understand the practical usability of mathematics in an international context

The graduates ...
- can reason geometrical, arithmetical, and algebraic relations and contribute to the development of argumentation and communication skills at the primary level
- can didactically construct and teach conversions in the areas of time, measures of capacity, measures of mass, and currency as well as convert length, area, and volume measurements and convey them to the pupils and make the pupils experience them with all their senses
- can perform and derive calculations for perimeter, area, surface area, and volume and formulate didactic learning steps for them
- are familiar with the problems of teaching mathematics at an early age and have basic knowledge of early mathematics education
- can recognise mathematical potential and act accordingly in a differentiated and gender-appropriate manner
- are familiar with approaches to factual tasks and can teach different methods for better text comprehension, communicative work on modelling processes, and the development and training of solution strategies and support the development of process-related mathematical skills
- can give child-friendly instructions in the areas of competence of modelling, operating, communicating, and problem solving and thereby initiate both mathematical and linguistic learning both implicitly and explicitly
- are able to create different learning and discovery environments with and without the use of digital media in the subject of mathematics in order to meet all learning needs
- can recognise individual learning processes and take appropriate further pedagogical and didactic measures
- are familiar with formative performance assessment and evaluate performances and achievements in a criterion-oriented and appreciative manner
- have the necessary linguistic resources in the living foreign language English and are familiar with suitable CLIL strategies in order to organise repetitive and in-depth work with numbers, operations, and quantities as well as level and space in the mathematical areas of competence in the correct language and with correct pronunciation/intonation and to apply these in learning designs
- have a repertoire of games, rhymes, songs, child-friendly factual texts, stories, and LearningApps for content-integrative mathematics instruction.
