Intended learning outcomes

On completion of the course, the student should be able to

- analyse, problematise, evaluate and select intervention strategies for pupils in need of special support in mathematics,
- identify critical aspects in the mathematical knowledge development and suggest preventive measures,
- supervise colleagues in the organisation and design of special support in mathematics,
- develop documentation work in special education with focus on mathematical development
- assess and develop evaluation strategies for special education in the field of mathematics.

Course content

In the course, different intervention strategies are covered, such as concretisation, and how teachers can work preventively on different levels. The supervision process of colleagues is also covered. In the final part of the course, documentation work and evaluation strategies for special education are discussed, with focus on learning in mathematics.

Teaching and working methods

Lectures, seminars and field studies are included in the course. In addition to scheduled time, students are expected to work with independent studies, individually and/or in groups.

Examination

The course is examined orally and through written assignments.

Grades

Other information

Planning and implementation of a course must take its starting point in the wording of the syllabus. The course evaluation included in each course must therefore take up the question how well the course agrees with the syllabus. The course is carried out in such a way that both men´s and women´s experience and knowledge is made visible and developed.
