Course Description:

TTL 2 is a 3-unit course which will focus on the application, design, production, utilization and evaluation of information and Communications Technology (ICT) materials for teaching and learning in Mathematics Education Programs. The major requirement for this course is an ICT-integrated and Project-based Learning Plan aligned to the K-to 12 curriculums. All the learning activities and course requirements will revolve around the student-teacher developed Learning Plan.
