Course summary
Overview
Mathematics is integral to so much in life. However, many people see themselves as lacking mathematical ability and have little confidence in engaging with the subject. The challenges to teaching and learning mathematics are therefore many, but so are the ways to explore and tackle them!
If you’re driven to encourage greater appreciation, competence, and confidence in mathematics for all learners, then our MA in Mathematics Education course is for you.
Whether you’re a graduate in mathematics, a related discipline, or an educator at any level, this course offers you the chance to deepen your expertise, gain valuable professional experience, and make a real impact on learners of all ages.
On this dynamic course, you’ll learn about key theories, findings, and applications of mathematics education research, as well as leading digital resources for mathematics and science teaching.
You’ll gain professional learning experience and work on a dissertation project under the supervision of a member of the Research in Mathematics Education (RME) Group. The RME Group is part of the vibrant and welcoming community of mathematics educators here at UEA.
