Acting CEO Michelle Wildman @Parentkind suggests we may need a reframing of maths for girls in particular given our very low uptake of higher maths by girls @mathsanxiety@joboaler
Michelle Wildman from @Parentkind argues that we need role models to champion maths and we need a new infrastructure to demystify the way maths is taught so that parents understand it. #MathsAnxiety Summit
. @dr_tom_hunt & @Dave_Shef looked at #MathsAnxiety in teachers and anxiety around teaching maths. One study found that teachers’ anxiety predicted pupils’ maths achievement. And high maths anxious teachers predicated worse maths achievement among girls!
@AlisonMPeacock from the chartered college of teaching stresses the need to resist labelling children & ourselves so we can learn without limits at tonight’s #mathsanxiety summit
Transformability - what we do now impacts future achievement. Dame Alison Peacock - children respond well to choosing their own level of challenge. Agency Trust Inclusion to avoid #MathsAnxiety
.@AlisonMPeacock talks about the importance of fostering a culture of confidence and “risk taking” and “playing with ideas” in classrooms #MathsAnxiety Summit
