They build on a framework that highlights the importance of developing pre-service and in-service teachers\u2019 knowledge about mathematics, about learning and learners, about teaching, and about the teachers\u2019 knowledge about themselves as learners and as teachers. The programs are designed to develop a strong mathematical content knowledge base. A focus is also placed on beliefs about teaching and learning, supporting the belief that all students can learn mathematics and can learn to appreciate its beauty and utility. The goals that teachers set for themselves are charted and analyzed during the course of each of the programs.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_position=&#8221;inside&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Open Sans||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_4_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||on||||&#8221; header_4_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post Baccalaureate New York State Initial Certificate Program<\/strong><br \/>Since students enter this program with a strong background in mathematics, their course of study highlights the teaching and learning of mathematics. As such, with the exception of the first objective, the objectives listed for the undergraduate program are also the objectives for the post-bacs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in Mathematics Education:<\/strong> Leading to New York State Initial and Professional Certification<\/p>\n<p>This course of study highlights the teaching and learning of mathematics, mathematics, and pedagogical content knowledge. The objectives of this program are the same as those of the Post Baccalaureate Program as well as:<\/p>\n<p>1. Increase their knowledge and understanding of the content of mathematics and school mathematics<br \/>2. Increase their knowledge of research in mathematics education.<\/p>\n<p>The Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in Mathematics Education is a program of initial and professional certification combined in a 39-credit master\u2019s program. It is designed for candidates who have a major in Mathematics, or a cohesive program of study in Mathematics of 36 credits (minimum) in Mathematics (MATH) courses. The MAT program consists of two sections: 24 credits for Initial certification (as described in (2) above) and 15 credits for Professional certification in New York State: 6 credits in Mathematics Education (SEYS) and 9-credits in Mathematics (MATH). Candidates may take 9 credits in Mathematics (MATH) during the 24-credits. For initial certification candidates may take the 6 credits in Mathematics Education (SEYS) after completing the 24-credits for initial certification.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Master of Science in Education:<\/strong> Leading to New York State Professional Certification<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_position=&#8221;inside&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Open Sans||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_4_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||on||||&#8221; header_4_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mathematics MS Ed program<\/strong><br \/>This MS ED program is designed for students who have attained an initial certification in mathematics (grades 7-12) and who wish to gain professional certification as mathematics teachers. The program is comprised of 15 credits in education and 15 credits in any courses in mathematics that are at the 500-level or above that the student has never taken before. Students graduating from this program can have opportunities to teach mathematics in college settings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Math and Bilingual MS Ed program<\/strong><br \/>This MS Ed program is designed for students initially certified in mathematics grades 7-12 who are also proficient in a language other than English. The program provides coursework and guided field experiences to prepare these teachers for the special challenges of teaching mathematics to English Language Learners who are bilinguals in mainstream as well as bilingual classrooms. The program will lead to professional certification in teaching mathematics in grades 7-12 and a New York State bilingual extension for grades 7-12.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mathematics and Computer Science MS Ed program<\/strong><br \/>This MS Ed program is designed for students who have attained an initial certification in mathematics (grades 7-12) and who wish to gain professional certification as mathematics teachers as well as extending their proficiency in computer science so as to meet the growing needs for computer science teachers in the secondary schools.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;
