Learning outcomes
The Mathematics course builds on the mathematics knowledge acquired by students and includes basic knowledge of mathematical logic and set theory. It provides the student with an introduction to mathematical theories of elementary arithmetic and geometry and the theory of mathematics teaching, focusing on the special needs of a primary school teacher. The student develops the skill to use mathematical logic for the development of mathematical thinking. Particular emphasis is placed on creative and independent work with concepts, gradual building, acquisition, accurate and concise usage of the specialized language. The most necessary symbolism is introduced to allow the use of clear inscriptions for a deeper understanding and to reinforce the thorough acquisition of elements of the minimum professional language. Teaching of subtopics is connected with the problem of pupils with specific disorders, especially dyscalculia and manifestations of their difficulties in learning mathematical concepts.
Student can: - to determine the truth value of the statement, compound statement, to negate the quantified statement and to justify its solution, - to read symbolic entries of mathematical objects, to use symbols of mathematical language in written form, - to precisely formulate the definitions of established concepts and other knowledge from the basics of propositional logic and set theory to express - correctly from the point of view of linguistic and mathematical, - solving tasks using the verbal number, knowledge of sets and set operations, - show sets by the Venn diagram, - using the definitions to prove the relationship between sets.
