ClearNarratives for the Essential SLOs for GeT Courses
During the 2019-2020 academic year, the Teaching GeT working group developed a set of Student Learning Objectives (SLOs) for the GeT courses. This year, the working group is still focused on the SLOs. We are working on writing narratives elaborating on each SLO. An example draft narrative for one of the SLOs, SLO 4 on […]
Essential Student Learning Objectives for GeT Courses
Last year, the Teaching GeT (Geometry for Teachers) Group started to think about the question: what materials could we produce that would be most helpful for a new teacher of a GeT course? We quickly ran into an issue: unlike many other mathematical subjects, there isn’t a standard curriculum for a GeT course. Many different kinds […]
A GeT Course “Classic”: The Euclidean Archetype
We are all members of the Euclidean Archetype workgroup. As we summarized in our report, a GeT course organized around the Euclidean archetype will focus on the axiomatic development of fundamental principles of geometry. Informed by the spirit and organization of Euclid’s Elements, this course emphasizes mathematical precision, rigorous proof, and clear communication. We have […]
