- with the basic mathematical content especially implicated in the National Curriculum for kindergarten and primary school;
- to critically revise their previous mathematical knowledge with the aim to deepen it from an epistemological, cognitive, didactic point of view.
Program
I. Numbers
- Numbers (natural, integer, rational, real)
- Arithmetics operations and their proporties
II Space and Shapes
- Point, line, plane and three-dimensional space;
- Geometric shapes in the plane and in the space;
- Basic elements of Euclidean geometry;
- Geometrical transformations .
III Probability and statistics
- First elements of probability;
- First notions of statistics.

- Assessment
The final test is made of a written exam about the program listed above. It consists of 15 questions; nearly 50% of them are "multple choice" type.
For the final test is allowed 1 hour of time.
For every correct answer to the test they are assigned 1 or 2 points.
- Disability and Specific Learning Disorders (SLD)
Students who have registered their disability certification or SLD certification with the Inclusion and Right to Study Office can request to use conceptual maps (for keywords) during exams.
To this end, it is necessary to send the maps, two weeks before the exam date, to the course instructor, who will verify their compliance with the university guidelines and may request modifications.
