Participation and Community Engagement in Mathematics - MATH399
This unit provides an opportunity for students to engage with the community through a variety of activities centred on communicating mathematical ideas to a range of students. Examples might include individual or group activities with educational institutions, not for profit organisations and public sector partners. The unit promotes learning through participation with community partners as well as the development of graduate capabilities and professional skills. Students will be encouraged to apply knowledge learnt through their degree to helping others understand mathematical concepts and develop as mathematical thinkers. Student learning will be facilitated through orientation and induction activities, scaffolding for skill and knowledge development and debriefing and supported throughout by rigorous academic assessment.
