Australian Education Review - Teaching Mathematics - the latest research - Maths teachers are boring?

ACER Has just published the Australian Education Review on Teaching Mathematics: Using research-informed strategies and can be downloaded here. This 80 page journal by Peter Sullivan deals with the following issues:

  • The Goals of School Mathematics

  • Assessments of student mathematics learning

  • Numeracy, practical mathematics and mathematical literacy

  • Six principles for effective teaching of mathematics

  • and more...


The ABC has spoken with Peter Sullivan in regards to this paper and have written a very brief article that "maths teaching is too boring". What a terrible stereotype!
