Resource 1: NCF/NCFTE teaching requirements

This unit links to the following teaching requirements of the NCF (2005) and NCFTE (2009), and will help you to meet those requirements:

• View students as active participants in their own learning and not as mere recipients of knowledge; to encourage their capacity to construct knowledge; to ensure that learning shifts away from rote methods.
• View learning as a search for meaning out of personal experiences and knowledge generation as a continuously evolving process of reflective learning.
• Help students to see mathematics as something to talk about, to communicate through, to discuss among themselves, to work together on.
• Connect school knowledge with community knowledge and life outside the school.
