Mathematics 1, Web-Based

Mathematics is a central subject in primary schools and in teacher education programmes. Teacher education programmes in mathematics cover several aspects of the subject. For instance, in addition to the pure knowledge of the subject, there is also a special focus on its unique characteristics and their effect on the teaching of mathematics.

Career opportunities/Further studies

The study programme is suitable for teachers who teach or will teach mathematics in primary and lower secondary schools, but who lack formal education in the subject.
Teachers who completed Mathematics 1 (5 old-style credits/15 ECTS) under the 1994 Curriculum can extend their education with 15 ECTS by taking module 2 under the new curriculum. The study programme is also relevant for teachers in upper secondary schools who wish to improve their formal qualifications in the subject, and for pre-school teachers who want further education in order to teach in the school system.
