Enhancing the prospective teacher's understanding of fundamental concepts for the instruction ofgeometry and statistical concepts
Learning Goals and Assessment Plans
| Learning Goal | Assessment |

| The student will be able to understand and explain the geometric properties of and relationships between various types of polygons, with special emphasis on triangles and quadrilaterals. | When the class is being assessed, the final exams will include embedded questions to assess student performance on these topic-specific learning goals. Instructors are resposible for tallying their students scores. |
