  8. What can I expect from the University College? • SKE courses are funded TDA programmes designed to meet the needs of aspiring secondary mathematics teachers. • The purpose of this programme is to enable its participants to be in a position to satisfy the subject knowledge requirements as set out in the Professional Standards Q14. • The course characterises this as a Profound Understanding of Fundamental Mathematics. • We monitor your progress in this direction and provide you with regular feedback channelled through your personal tutor with whom you will have an individual tutorial once or twice each term where progress will be discussed using your audit and assessment feedback.

  9. Depth of Understanding Range of Skills Extent of Knowledge Engaging in mathematics For teachers of post-16 For teachers of statutory 11-16 Conceptual Development: Thinking Mathematically Understanding and Misunderstanding Number Geometry Modelling Algebra Data Handling Probability & Statistics Mechanics & Dynamics Calculus Complex Numbers Developing a Profound Understanding of Fundamental Mathematics

  10. What is expected of me? • The TDA provide all participants (EEC, MEC and ERIC) with a training bursary to facilitate their studying on the Enhancement course. • You must attend all taught sessions and participate fully in the learning and assessment process. • You are required to adhere to assessment deadlines, to know where to access all relevant material, to respect University College property/staff/students, keep appointments and maintain your audit.

  11. Teaching EEC • 3 days per week taught sessions (10am – 4pm) • 2 days per week independent study MEC and ERIC • 4 days per week taught sessions (10am – 4pm) • 1 day per week independent study

  12. Field Trips Lydford Gorge Bodmin Moor

  13. Where? Autumn term • UCP Marjon, Spring and Summer terms • 2 days per week at satellite centre (Exeter, Truro) • Examinations at UCP Marjon

  14. Assessment • Examinations • Reports • Assignments • Presentations • Making resources

  15. Profound Understanding of Fundamental Mathematics

  16. Resources Graphical Calculators Textbooks Online Support Library Computers & mathematics software

  17. Learning Space

  18. Application Process • Apply for a PGCE place stating in your application that you would be willing to study on an enhancement course first. • When you have a PGCE place apply for a place on the appropriate SKE course • Contact mec@marjon.ac.uk for application forms

  19. Contacts Nicola Trubridge (Programme Leader for MSKE) ntrubridge@marjon.ac.uk Marie Forster (SKE Administrator) mec@marjon.ac.uk
