A new paper about education research in the UK. Colin Foster, Hugues (Hugo) Lortie Forgues, Elizabeth Stokoe and I analysed the journal articles that were submitted to the REF education subpanel in 2021 and 2014, and tried to predict unit-level peer review outcomes. bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/be…

I’ve been very brave! I’ll be exploring both the additive inverse and the multiplicative inverse and how we use them.

If you teach secondary mathematics, you really need to know about the LUMEN curriculum resources prepared by Colin Foster and his colleagues at Loughborough University's Centre for Mathematical Cognition: bit.ly/3Xp16cY

Primary teachers - Loughborough Department of Mathematics Education are trying to understand the challenges you face when choosing digital resources. Your help is much appreciated!

Worth a look, everything Jemma Sherwood does is thoroughly thought through:

First time using resources from the Loughborough Department of Mathematics Education LUMEN curriculum today and this task was excellent! Tom Francome Chris Shore Colin Foster . Black writing is pupils work, I added the red as we looked at them under the visualiser as a class.

Don Steward's family recently added Don's mathematics teaching 'rough notes' to Don's Blog, with incredible support from Tom Francome and Loughborough Department of Mathematics Education LUMEN donsteward.blogspot.com/p/don-stewards…

#mathsteachers Don Steward’s median blog is a phenomenal set of resources for teaching mathematics. We’ve been digitising Don’s paper notes, and they are now available on his blog. Here’s a tribute to the great man and some detail about what’s in there: shorturl.at/l8uhJ

This is a must see for all Maths teachers From Tom Francome . A great opportunity for an insight into a master tasks designer and teacher. "Don Steward s blog Median a source of high quality teaching and practice materials" at blog.lboro.ac.uk/cmc/2024/11/27… #lboroblogs
