Study programmes

The graduate of the study programme will acquire necessary knowledge and skills for the profession of a mathematics teacher at a lower and upper secondary school of all types. He/she has wide mathematical, didactic and pedagogical-psychological education. He/she is equipped with knowledge and skills from basic mathematical fields, from problem solving and from the history of mathematical thinking. He/she can apply modern didactic methods and forms of work in the teaching of mathematics in a creative way. He/she is able to cooperate on the construction and application of school educational programmes including inter-subject connections. He/she is prepared to design and realise the teaching of mathematics aimed at understanding mathematics, with respect to various types of pupils requiring differentiated teaching. He/she is able to identify pupils talented for mathematics and pupils with special learning needs and provide them with systematic support. He/she is able to use results of research in mathematics education in the design of his/her own teaching and in the diagnosis of pupils' mistakes and their re-education.

The graduate of the study programme is a fully qualified mathematics teacher at a lower and upper secondary school of all types. His/her wide mathematics, social-scientific and pedagogical-psychological education creates good prerequisites for an independent choice of professional orientation. He/she is a teacher who can react to the needs of teaching at different levels and types of school in a creative way. He/she can work outside the educational system, for examples, in media, bureaus and institutions aimed at education and work with pupils talented in mathematics. He/she can continue with his/her education within a doctoral study in Mathematics Education which is accredited at the Faculty of Education, Charles University.
