Extending Mathematical Understanding - Intervention Specialist Teacher Course (Early Years)
Developed by Associate Professor Ann Gervasoni of Monash University, EMU is a research based intervention approach that has been shown to improve students knowledge and confidence with mathematics. EMU offers intensive learning opportunities for students who are currently struggling, including a small group intervention led by a Specialist Teacher. The EMU Specialist Teacher courses provide professional learning for teachers to develop their expertise and leadership in mathematics. Underpinning the program is an accreditation process that ensures that EMU specialist teachers maintain ongoing learning in this essential curriculum area, have the expertise to deliver professional learning to colleagues, and work within a whole school approach to improving learning and teaching for all.
