Mission

Vision

Preparing highly qualified educational teachers specialized in Mathematics; equipping them with the principles of knowledge, scientific and logical thinking, and scientific research skills in Mathematics teaching; and enhancing their practical abilities to effectively address daily educational challenges and contribute to both school-based learning and lifelong learning.

Aspiring to prepare highly qualified teachers who can effectively develop skills in teaching arithmetic and Mathematics for primary and secondary stages.

Aims

Equipping students with the knowledge of fundamental components of Mathematics, essential mathematical concepts, mathematical reasoning, and problem-solving strategies.

Providing students with Mathematics teaching skills using modern methods that encourage active learning; implementing applications to elucidate mathematical concepts and processes; and utilizing real data, verification skills, simulation, multiple representations, and intuitive justifications.

Equipping students with knowledge of psychological and educational foundations to understand learners’ nature; their learning motivations; personalities; learning methods; attitudes towards teachers, curriculum and school; tendencies and desires to participate and interact in various learning situations; and employing this knowledge during curriculum development, lesson planning and implementation, or evaluation of cognitive, skill-based, and affective aspects of learning.

Enabling students to develop professional skills, self-confidence, respect for people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, and the ability to work individually or within a team.
