Course summary

Overview

Mathematics is integral to so much in life. However, many see themselves as lacking mathematical ability and have little confidence in engaging with mathematics. The challenges to the teaching and learning of mathematics are therefore many – but so are the ways to explore and tackle them!

If you’re intrigued by how we can foster a greater appreciation, competency and confidence in mathematics for all learners, then our MA Mathematics Education course is for you!

We welcome applications from graduates in Mathematics and Mathematics-related disciplines and from mathematics educators at all levels.

On our course, you’ll learn about key theories, findings and applications of mathematics education research and about foremost digital resources for mathematics and science teaching.

You’ll acquire professional learning experience. You’ll also work on a dissertation project under the supervision of a member of the Research in Mathematics Education (RME) Group – the vibrant, and very welcoming, community of mathematics educators here at UEA.
