Just a few days left help shape the teaching of Maths. Thanks to all teachers who have taken part so far. If you haven't got a chance yet it would be great to get your insight.

Maths teachers in Ireland: quick question

Do you mainly use student prior knowledge to:
1. strengthen prior learning, or
2. prime students for what comes next?

I am running an anonymous questionnaire in the next comment (<15 mins) to map what teachers are actually doing daily.

[Eoghan Long @eoghan_long]

I'm looking forward to delivering CPD sessions with the @imtanational and @IMTACorkBranch on research that I am conducting with @UCCSchoolofEd over the coming weeks.

We want to hear teachers’ views on the importance of different aspects of student learning and opinions on particular scenarios from experimental research practice. Questionnaire link: https://t.co/aBpHKy6pkL

Brilliant day at the @imtanational Conference in Portlaoise. Great selection of workshops and Tom Crawford's Keynote was excellent.

I was delighted to present on the use of Retrieval Practice in Mathematics Teaching based on research with Mark Prendergast and Máire Ní Ríordáin.

Delighted to see this paper published today. In it we see Irish maths teachers say “grinds” are driven by exam pressure, income needs & systemic gaps. Most teachers provide grinds to supplement pay but some worry it worsens inequality & masks deeper issues in maths education.

Why is forgetting such an important part of learning? Robert Bjork explains something that every teacher should know.
