MATE 4392 Research Methods in Middle and Secondary School Math

This course is intended for middle and secondary school mathematics teacher certification students. In this course, students will design and carry out a set of independent inquiries, through which they learn to combine skills from mathematics, statistics and science in order to solve research problems. In these inquiries, students will learn to design a research project, write and review papers, and use quantitative reasoning. The inquiries will enable students to learn how researchers develop and communicate new knowledge and insights and to develop critical thinking skills in conducting research projects.
