How do these courses relate to the Texas Essential Elements for secondary mathematics?
These courses can help prepare the teacher to teach according to Basic Understanding (2) of the TEKS for Geometry: §111.34. Geometry • (2) Geometric thinking and spatial reasoning. “Spatial reasoning plays a critical role in geometry; shapes and figures provide powerful ways to represent mathematical situations and to express generalizations about space and spatial relationships. Students use geometric thinking to understand mathematical concepts and the relationships among them.” • (5) Tools for geometric thinking. Techniques for working with spatial figures and their properties are essential in understanding underlying relationships. Students use a variety of representations (concrete, pictorial, algebraic, and coordinate), tools, and technology, including, but not limited to, (powerful and accessible hand-held calculators and computers with graphing capabilities to solve meaningful problems by representing figures, transforming figures, analyzing relationships, and proving things ab
