BSc Education Mathematics

Promoting effective Mathematics teaching and learning in Ghana has become an issue of immense concern. This has been necessitated by Ghanaian students' poor performance at the national and international levels. Producing teachers and education practitioners who understand what it takes to improve quality education and manage its delivery effectively is often lacking. The courses in this programme are designed to equip those who wish to begin a career in teaching Mathematics at the senior high level with skills to maximise student learning outcomes. The skills acquired will also be transferable to other levels and contexts of education, thus making students graduating from the School equipped to work as assessment design specialists and managers of educational change in general. The programme desires to produce a unique educational practitioner able to diagnose problems of teaching and learning, and introduce innovative practices that can lead to significant improvements in the learning experiences of all Mathematics learners.
