Understanding of the principal concepts of the didactics of mathematics and of their applications into a classroom, in front of the students.
To bring out students' initial conceptions related to teaching mathematics in secundary school and to evolve these conceptions towards what is expected from a today's teacher according to research results and legal requirements concerning compulsory education
We try to explain the principal ideas of the didactics of mathematics through readings, examples, analysis of texts in the concerned fields. We speak about the Theory of Didactic Situations : didactical contract, a-didactical situation, obstacle... and the Anthropological Theory of Didactics : praxeologies, didactic transposition. We present some didactic tools such as using computers in the classroom, practising scientific
The evaluation is divided into three parts :
The weighted mean is used to provide the final note only if each part receives at least 8/20. In the other case, the smallest note is used.
