The M.Ed. program is a collaborative effort between the College of Education and the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. The program is designed to provide opportunities for mathematics teachers to deepen their understanding of mathematics by learning advanced mathematical topics in relation to the mathematics they actually teach.
The mathematics courses in the M.Ed. program are taught by Graduate Faculty Members in the JMU Department of Mathematics & Statistics, including Elizabeth Arnold, David Carothers, Stephen Lucas, and Dinesh Sharma. The program content is consistent with the recommendations of the Mathematical Education of Teachers report of the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences.
