1st Semester, AY 2020-2021

I. COURSE TITLE: MATHEMETICS, SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

II. COURSE DESCRIPTION:


This subject presents the development of mathematical, scientific and technological concepts by young children within a socio-
cultural theoretical framework informed by an inquiry stance. Science, mathematics and technology provide tools and contexts
for processing concrete, perceptual and linguistically available information to form concepts and solve problems. Students will
participate in a number of practical but theoretically based experiences in order to understand the kinds of social, linguistic and
imaginative contexts which facilitate young children's mathematical, scientific and technological understanding.

III. COURSE OBJECTIVE:

 be able to identify and explain the ways in which the integrative nature of young children's play and other informal contexts
can support their construction of knowledge and acquisition and use of early mathematics, science and technology concepts;
 be able to demonstrate skills in creating learning communities in early childhood settings with the potential for facilitating
mathematics, science and technology understandings;
 have expanded and consolidated their own science, mathematics and technological knowledge, and the historical and cultural
sources of that knowledge;
 be able to demonstrate their skills in planning, implementing, evaluating and reflecting upon teaching and learning experiences
with the potential for facilitating mathematics, science and technology understandings;
 be able to identify and explain opportunities for spontaneous learning where mathematics, science and technology serve the
purposes of investigating a phenomenon, question or problem;
 be able to apply professional skills and knowledge in ways which will encourage children to investigate materials and ideas
regardless of cultural background and other sources of diversity;
 be able to explain and demonstrate specific communication and teaching strategies which support children's construction of
mathematical, scientific and technological knowledge; and
 be able to access the human and technological resources most appropriate for exploring and examining all aspects of the
subject.
