ELEMENTARY MATHEMATICS TEACHER EDUCATION

Course Objective

The purpose of this course is to introduce primary school mathematics teacher candidates to the basic concepts of artificial intelligence and their potential applications in mathematics education, to provide them with the ability to evaluate and use artificial intelligence-supported tools in line with pedagogical principles, to raise awareness about the ethical and social dimensions of these technologies, and to provide a vision of how they can integrate artificial intelligence in their future professional development.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Explain the basic concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (e.g., machine learning, natural language processing) and its evolutionary place within educational technologies.
2   Discuss the transformative potential and opportunity areas of AI in the education sector in general.
3   Provide examples of specific AI-supported tools and platforms developed or adapted for primary mathematics education and describe their basic functions.
4   Critically analyze the pedagogical suitability, instructional benefits, and usage difficulties of AI-supported mathematics education tools.
5   Develop strategies for integrating AI-powered tools into primary school mathematics curricula appropriate to course objectives and student needs, and draft sample lesson scenarios.
6   Assess critical issues such as ethics (bias, transparency), privacy (data security), and accessibility associated with the use of AI in education and demonstrate awareness of potential risks.
7   Can use a simple and widely accessible AI-assisted mathematics learning tool or platform at a basic level and gain experience in its pedagogical use.
