What can the mathematics education community do to increase the use of digital resources by KS5 teachers
I was recently asked the following two questions in an email. Teachers: What can the mathematics education community do to increase the use of digital resources by KS5 teachers? Students: How can time be found in the KS5 teaching programme to bring up the students’ skills in digital resources? I've reposted my response here: 1. Teachers: What can the mathematics education community do to increase the use of digital resources by KS5 teachers? I have a model for this of 10:80:10 for teachers who are really interested in technology/will use technology if it helps/will rarely use technology. I think the most effective strategy is to concentrate on the middle 80%. For these the single most important criterion to judge any resource on, including a digital one, is whether it is the best tool to help students understand the concept. Many of these teachers don’t have the time to learn complicated software, such as Mathematica, but would use a graph-plotter in fron...
