Role in Curriculum

Enhancing the prospective teacher's understanding of fundamental concepts for the instruction of
geometry and statistical concepts

Learning Goals and Assessment Plans

Learning GoalAssessment
The student will be able to understand and
explain the geometric properties of and
relationships between various types of polygons,
with special emphasis on triangles and
quadrilaterals.
When the class is being assessed, the final exams
will include embedded questions to assess student
performance on these topic-specific learning
goals. Instructors are resposible for tallying
their students scores.
The student will be able to find the area of a
given geometric shape through its decomposition
into simpler shapes such as triangles and
rectangles. The student will be able to find the
volume of simple geometric solids.
same
The student will be able to perform conversions
within and between various English and metric
units of length, area, and volume.
same
The student will be able to read, understand and
construct the visual representation of data and
exhibit an understanding of the mean, median, and
mode.

When assessment activities are done, the results will be summarized in memorandum form and filed with the department chairperson for record keeping
purposes.

Information obtained from assessment will be used to assess and self-reflect on the success of the course and to make any necessary changes to
improve teaching and learning effectiveness.
