A Postgraduate certificate that provides you with resources and strategies to implement Mathematics through play and, moreover, 100% online!" 

Famed psychologist William James stated: "If we remembered everything, we would be as ill as if we remembered nothing." Memory works selectively, and therefore, we remember much better what has had an impact on us, especially in a positive educational environment. Therefore, the design of innovative didactic materials that include the use of new technologies for teaching, specifically for mathematics, allows the student to develop a real interest. In this way, they will not only learn more and better, but will do so in a dynamic and innovative environment.  

In this new era in teaching and with the purpose of providing teachers with didactic strategies, TECH, together with an experienced team of experts in Early Childhood Education, has developed a complete degree that gathers the most exhaustive information on the subject. It is a 150-hour program in which the graduate will delve into the use of manipulative materials in the classroom through the use of active and participatory methodological tools.  

To do this, they will have an academic program taught in a totally online mode and during 6 weeks in which they will have unlimited access to a Virtual Campus, where they will find the best theoretical and practical material in different formats. That is to say, you will not only have access to the best and most updated syllabus in this field, but also to practical cases, detailed videos, complementary readings and much more. In this way, you will be able to perfect your practice and become an elite professional in the creation of educational projects beneficial to students in the learning of Mathematics in Early Childhood Education.  

You will be able to download all the content to any electronic device from the Virtual Campus and consult it whenever you need it, even without an Internet connection"

• The development of practical cases presented by experts in Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry and Measurement 
• The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice 
• Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning. 
• Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies  
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments 
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection 

Become a teacher guide capable of developing the most dynamic mathematical contents for the elaboration of manipulative materials" 

The program includes in its teaching staff a team of professionals from the sector who pour into this course the experience of their work, in addition to recognized specialists from reference societies and prestigious universities.  

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.  

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year For this purpose, the students will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.   

Delve into the design and development of teaching materials to establish a participatory and renewed academic situation"

Get up to date through this complete program in Design and Creation of Teaching Materials: Mathematics Workshop and Play in the Classroom and become an elite teacher"

TECH uses the effective Relearning methodology in all its programs, with which the student will be able to integrate the most important concepts through repetition in different formats throughout the program. In this way, the hours of orthodox study and memorization are reduced, moving on to a progressive and natural acquisition of knowledge. Therefore, the professional who decides to take this program will have at his disposal an advanced and complete syllabus, which also presents innovative multimedia content. In this way, the graduate is guaranteed a unique academic experience, adapted to the demands and needs of today's labor market.  

This is your opportunity to access the best theoretical-practical contents of the academic panorama, only in the TECH library"
