The course develops the arithmetic study, trying to give answer to questions such as: What is a natural number? Which kinds of numbers are there? So, the historical development of different kinds of numbers used in primary education is studied, as well as the properties they verify and the basic operations algorithms. Meanwhile, different situations associated to the number use are worked.

SP14 To contextualise teaching work in the face of political, social and pedagogical changes, and to foster democratic education and the development of active citizenship to achieve a sustainable future.
Los resultados de aprendizaje son la concreción de las competencias que el estudiante adquirirá en la materia. Se establecen tres niveles:
- Óptimo: adquisición del 100% de las competencias y maestría en al menos el 75% de ellas.
- Medio: adquisición de la mayoría de las competencias pretendidas en la materia y maestría en aquellos aspectos que contribuyen a las competencias específicas del título.
- Deficiente: insuficiente adquisición de los aspectos que contribuyen a las competencias específicas del título.
Un estudiante obtiene una calificación de APTO si el nivel de aprendizaje es óptimo o medio.
______________________________
The learning outcomes refer to the proficiencies that the student will adquire in the subject. There are three levels:
- Optimum: Adquisition of 100% of proficiencies, dominating at least 75% of them
- Medium: Adquisition of most of the proficiencies, dominating those skills that contribute to the specific proficiencies of the grade
- Deficient: Poor adquisition of skills that contribute to the specific proficiencies of the grade
A student will get a pass ("APTO") grade if the learning level is optimum or medium
Concrete learning outcomes:
LO1 Arithmetical problems resolution and Natural Numbers representation, operations and properties proof.
LO2 Arithmetical exercises and word-problems analysis and formulation.
LO3 Didactic material useful for teaching and learning numerical systems and arithmetic in primary education analysis.
Teaching methods
Code | Description |
TM1 | Lecture with full attendance |
TM2 | Interaction in large group |
TM3 | Interaction in medium-sized group |
TM5 | Individualised interaction: tasks and guidelines for autonomous study |
Learning activities
Code | Description | Hours | Attendence |
LA1 | Theory classes (foundation, examples, proven applications and developments) | 45 | 100 |
LA2 | Practical classes or, in the event, practical experience (in the field) | 15 | 100 |
LA3 | Preparation of papers and oral defence | 30 | 10 |
LA4 | Self-study | 50 | 0 |
LA5 | Tutorials | 5 | 100 |
LA6 | Oral or written exams | 5 | 100 |
Learning outcomes | Evaluation systems | Percent (%) | Recoverable (%) |
LO1 | 10 | ||
LO1, LO2, LO3 | ES3. Practical work: observation, proposal and evaluation | 10 | 10 |
LO1, LO2, LO3 | ES4. Oral or written tests, that could be partial or global | 80 | 80 |
Total | 100 | 90 |
ES1: Class participation will be measured through the interventions carried out in it and the tasks that arise and resolve in it.
ES3: Practical work will be proposed and resolved in the classroom or proposed as tasks and works associated with autonomous work. They can be practical work to be carried out both individually and in group and must be delivered at a specific date.
ES4: Two tests will be conducted: partial (40%) and final (40%). In both cases the qualification of APT must be obtained. If 5 or more were obtained in the partial test, the part corresponding to the partial test will not be required in the final test. If a score of less than 5 is obtained in the partial test, the final test will be that of the whole agenda.
In all ES4 tests and their recovery, the student must solve a problem extracted from the textbooks of Primary Education. Correct resolution of this problem will be essential to qualify the rest of the test.
If the APT score is NOT obtained in the ES4 result, the maximum achievable final score is 4.5. Thus, the note to be assigned in the minutes will be the lowest of the following two: 4.5 and the average of all evaluation tools.
* Tools to use in recoveries:
a) ES3 (practical work). If the overall note of these works does not obtain the APT rating, the ES4 test must be answered individually to a practical question in order to recover the ES3.
b) ES4 (oral or written evidence). In the extraordinary evaluation, another test will be conducted that maintains a format similar to that of the test conducted during the ordinary evaluation period.
