COURSE DESCRIPTION
Course Level Bachelor's Degree
Course Type Compulsory
Course Objective To help prospective mathematics teachers acquire a deep understanding of basic concepts and structures of geometry and measurement, to help them see the relationships between these structures by using various materials; determine misconceptions about geometry and measurement and improve their skills to relate them with daily life.
Course Content Van Hiele thinking levels, basic geometric concepts, geometric structures, geometric solids, congruence and similarity, transformational geometry, projection, patterns and adornments, fractals, Pythagoras theorem,teaching the nature of measurement, time, length, area, volume and angle measuring (regulation of course content-using suitable teaching materials and structures, etc..); student information about these topics (understanding and interprating student thinking related to contents; knowing student difficulties, errors, misconceptions and the reasons); the relationship of these topics with daily life and other courses.
Prerequisites No the prerequisite of lesson.
Corequisite No the corequisite of lesson.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES
1• Knows Van Hiele geometric thinking levels and identify different thinking levels.
2• Comprehends and identifies basic geometric concepts and structures.
3• Analyses geometric solids.
4• Solves problems related to congruence and similarity.
5• Make inferences about geometric transformation.
6• Constructs different patterns and adornments and understands the relationships
