Per WGU's published description, Methods of Teaching Secondary Mathematics is an in-depth exploration of secondary mathematics content and pedagogy, distinguishing between subject mastery and effective teaching practices. The course prepares students to teach and reflect on secondary mathematics lessons that emphasize effective teaching practices, including differentiation, questioning techniques, and curriculum development. It also covers strategies for presenting mathematical material at the appropriate level, utilizing humanizing approaches, co-teaching, Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), accommodations, and inclusion. The catalog states this course has no required prerequisites. This is the pedagogy course, not the term-3 curriculum-alignment course (D902) and not a content exam.
One catalog table carries D906: term 4 of the Master of Arts in Teaching, Mathematics Education (Secondary, MATMES 202504), stacked beside D770 Secondary Literacy Methods and Interventions, D905 Statistics for Secondary Mathematics Teaching, and the D726 Early Clinical in Secondary Education. The name has a twin: the bachelor's mathematics education tables carry Methods of Teaching Secondary Mathematics as D900 (EDUC 3291, 3 CUs) with a word-for-word identical published description. Same name, same description, different codes and levels; the code on your program plan decides. The live classroom work beside D906 (early clinical now, advanced clinical and student teaching later) stays with you; we complete the academic rows around those windows. Message us the code and where you stand, and we quote a flat price in writing.
