Class participation is an important component of this course. Students are expected to ask questions, contribute to the discussion and make presentations.
If you have any trouble keeping up with assignments or other aspects of the course, make sure you let your lecturer know as early as possible. As you will find, building rapport and effective relationships are key to becoming an effective professional. Make sure that you are proactive in informing your lecturer when difficulties arise during the semester so that he can help you find a solution.
All assignments must be submitted as designated by your lecturer. Assignments must be submitted by the given deadline, or the lecturer must request special permission before the due date. Extensions will not be given beyond the next assignment except under extreme circumstances.
As a student in this course (and at this university), you are expected to maintain high degrees of professionalism, commitment to active learning and participation in this class, and integrity in your behavior in and out of the classroom.
1. Academic dishonesty includes cheating, inventing false information or citations, plagiarism, and helping someone else commit an act of academic dishonesty. It usually involves an attempt by a student to show possession of a level of knowledge or skill that they do not possess.
2. Course lecturer is initially responsible for detecting and dealing with academic dishonesty. If your lecturer believes that an act of academic dishonesty has occurred, he will discuss the matter with the student(s) involved. The lecturer may take any action deemed appropriate for academic dishonesty (including but not limited to cancellation of assignment, grade penalization, and reporting student to the HOD.
There is the need to do auditing of subject knowledge to establish and address student teachers’ learning needs, perceptions and misconceptions in Number and Algebra. Knowledge, skills and understanding of fundamental concepts of Number and Algebra, as well as, the ability to identify one’s own individual characteristics (culture, ethnicity, religion, family constellation, socio-economic background, dis/ability, etc.), can lead to a student teacher’s ability to apply these two areas of mathematics in patterning, generalisation and algebraic reasoning in reminding the student teachers of the role of deductive reasoning in developing mathematical ideas. Algebra is about generalized mathematical thinking arising from seeing patterns and relationships. Strong foundations in
Number and Algebra can help student teachers to develop confidence in demonstrating their mathematical abilities. For that reason, this course is designed to help student teachers to develop demonstrable confidence to explain or justify their thinking, based on their observations, the patterns they have observed, or what they know about numbers and algebraic relationships. As they do so, they develop confidence in teaching related topics in Number and Algebra to their pupils at the respective grade levels.
Topics in Number and Algebra include recognizing and developing patterns, using numbers and number operations, properties of numbers, concept of sets, number bases and modulo arithmetic, and algebraic expressions. In addition, student teachers will explore operations on algebraic expressions, apply mathematical properties to algebraic equations and functions. Using many examples of different local and global contexts, student teachers will solve mathematical problems using equations, graphs and tables to investigate linear and quadratic relationships. ICT tools and other manipulative materials will be used to introduce student teachers to the concepts listed above and to extend their conceptual understanding of the areas under study.
The course will focus on mathematical content on one hand and the strategies and learning experiences in doing mathematics on the other hand. These will be combined to form an integrated instructional approach that addresses the course learning outcomes. Differentiated approach to teaching will be used to ensure that student teachers will be supported in the area of Number and Algebra. The instructional strategies will pay attention to all learners, especially girls and students with Special Education Needs. The course will be assessed using a variety of assessments methods including coursework (assignments, quizzes, project works and presentation) and end of semester examination to provide a comprehensive outlook of student teachers’ competencies and skills. References are made to the following (NTS, 2b, 2f, 3j; NTECF p.30).

Critics of the nineteenth century tended to credit Jonson with the introduction of "humour" comedy into English literature. But it is now well known, not only that George Chapman's An Humorous Day's Mirth preceded Jonson's play by a year or more, but that Jonson himself was not especially intrigued by the trope of "humours." Since only Kitely is dominated by a "humour" as Jonson defined it in Every Man Out of His Humour, it seems more likely that Jonson was using a contemporary taste aroused by Chapman to draw interest to his play, which became his first indisputable hit.
