Students normally complete 30 credits in their freshman (U0) year.

The freshman year is the time to take introductory level courses in Mathematics, as well as to explore areas that are not normally taken as teachable subject areas within B.Ed. programs (e.g. Sociology, Psychology, Political Science, etc.). Students should also investigate the possibility of taking one of the First Year Seminar courses offered by the Faculty of Arts or the Faculty of Science.

Students in the Secondary Mathematics program must complete three Math prerequisite courses in their freshman year, MATH 133, MATH 140 and MATH 141.

In addition, students select courses from the recommended list below or other courses in consultation with the program adviser. The French Second Language (FRSL) courses suggested require a placement test to determine the appropriate course level.

15 credits selected as described below.

For students with a background in computers or other media applications in education, the following courses may be substituted for the above:

6 credits:

Note: Students selecting 18 credits of Secondary Mathematics courses as their other "teachable" subject will take 3 credits of Mathematics Secondary Teaching Methods courses to count as an elective in their program.

Secondary Mathematics students complete 54 credits selected in consultation with the program adviser in one of two options. They are expected to have completed the prerequisite courses MATH 133, MATH 140 and MATH 141 or their equivalents. Freshman students will take them as part of their freshman program.

Students entering from CEGEP should only choose this program if they have a strong background in their CEGEP mathematics courses. The 100-level prerequisite courses (MATH 133, MATH 140 and MATH 141) are considered CEGEP level and only students entering a 5-year program (out-of-province and directly from high school) are eligible to take them. Students entering with advanced standing without having completed these prerequisites will be required to make up any deficiencies in these courses over and above the degree requirements.

Option 1

30 credits from the list of "Required Mathematics Courses" and

24 credits from the list of "Complementary Mathematics Courses"

0r

Option 2:

30 credits from the list of "Required Mathematics Courses" and

6 credits from the list of "Complementary Mathematics Courses"

And

18 credits of designated courses in another "teachable" subject area (English, Social Sciences, or Science and Technology - see these Secondary Education programs for courses)

And must also take

3 credits of Secondary Teaching Methods for the teachable subject area

(Note: this additional Methods course counts as a 3-credit elective in the program.)

Students in other secondary subject areas (i.e., English, Social Sciences or Science and Technology) who select Mathematics as their other "teachable subject area" take

18 credits from the list of "Mathematics Courses for Other Secondary Subject Areas"

And

3 credits of "Secondary Teaching Methods - Mathematics"

(Note: this additional Methods course counts as a 3-credit elective in the program.)

30 credits for Secondary Mathematics Option 1 and Option 2 students

Note: Students with Mathematics as their "other teachable subject area" select from the list of "Mathematics Courses for Students in Other Secondary Subject Areas."

24 credits from the list below for Secondary Mathematics Option 1 students or

6 credits from the list below for Secondary Mathematics Option 2 students

Note: Students with Mathematics as their "other teachable subject area" select from the list of "Mathematics Courses for Students in Other Secondary Subject Areas."

Students in other secondary subject areas selecting Mathematics as their "other teachable subject area" take the following 18 credits.

6 credits of electives

Note: Students who have chosen to do 36 credits in one teachable subject and 18 credits in another will use 3 credits of electives to take the Secondary Teaching Methods course needed for their second teachable subject.
