Description : The aim of this lesson is to have students develop the effectiveness of the didactical intervention in early childhood education.
By the end of this course the student will be able to:
Be aware of the elementary mathematical concepts that are the subject of teaching in early childhood education age
• Be aware of the basic theories of learning and in particular their approaches to how to formulate appropriate elementary mathematical concepts
• Be aware of possible learning difficulties and systematic errors of mathematics, as these have been highlighted by the relevant research
• Apply appropriate activities for the teaching of mathematical concepts
• To enrich the learning environment with mathematical activities that stimulate the interesting behavior of pupils
• Promote the solution of the mathematical concepts of exploratory learning
• Organize the classroom in a way that promotes student collaboration and autonomy
