Mathematics Education
Important Notice
Currently, we are not accepting applications for admission to the M.Ed. program in Curriculum and Instruction in the Mathematics Education concentration for the 2009-10 academic year. The faculty is designing a new degree program that, if approved, would lead to initial teacher certification in Secondary Mathematics through a Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) program.
Applicants for the M.A.T. should have a bachelor's degree in mathematics. We expect this program to admit students for study beginning fall 2010. The deadline for applications will be spring 2010. Please check back for updates. We apologize for any inconvenience.
If you are already teaching mathematics, you should consider enrolling in the Master of Instruction (M.I.) program. The M.I. program is a degree for practicing PK-12 teachers who want to improve their instructional practice. The program strengthens teachers' capacity to study and improve their own practice through reflection and focus on individualized goals. The capstone project is a portfolio that is based on the individual teacher's practice and goals. The M.I. portfolio is aligned with National Board Certification through NBPTS, but is not equivalent. Teachers should view the M.I. portfolio as a step towards National Board Certification. For more information about this program, please see http://www.udel.edu/education/masters/instruction.
