Abstract

Teaching and Learning Middle Grades Mathematics is a material of Mathematical pedagogy course for middle grades mathematics teacher education.Its characteristics are as follows: the subject of unit is presented by the clue of the theory of mathematics teaching;the unit content is showed as the specific mathematical knowledge and it is organized by participatory activities in the form of teaching.The enlightenment to the teaching of mathematics teacher education in China are:(1) mathematics education theory should be learned through mathematics knowledge in mathematics teacher education programs;(2) mathematics teacher education materials should set an example to teaching methods and reflect learning by doing,learning mathematics teaching methods in mathematics teaching activity;(3) mathematics teacher education should focus on enhancing the quality of teachers in specialized subjects.
