Mathematics helps us make sense of our world by studying quantity, space, and change
in our environment. Middle and high school math teachers help students recognize patterns
and formulate mathematical ideas using reasoning and logic. These abilities can lead
a student towards a more successful future by improving their mathematical literacies,
and problem-solving skills.
Our program ensures graduates leave with extensive knowledge on past and current trends
in pedagogy and teaching methods while learning how to incorporate special education
and literacy techniques into their classrooms. Throughout the program, you will learn
how to teach using mathematics-specific technologies that incorporate robotics and
programing as well as motivate children using the gamification of mathematics.
In addition to your coursework, real-world classroom experience will ensure that you
are ready to lead your own classroom. As UW student in Laramie, you will also enjoy
many on-campus resources while earning your bachelors in secondary education.
All graduates earn a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics Education with a concurrent
major in Mathematics. This ensures you will be highly qualified candidate and will
expand your marketability and earning potential. You will be eligible to apply for a Wyoming teaching license to teach grades 6-12 upon completion of the program.
