MANSW works closely with the mathematics
associations across each state and territory and with the national body, AAMT
to promote excellence in mathematics education. AAMT have today released a
white paper ‘Pedagogy in Mathematics’ that outlines the key elements of
effective mathematics teaching: Position Paper
The
paper also provides practical guidance in the form of a framework for action to
help school leaders, decision makers and teachers implement the
recommendations.
‘Pedagogy
in Mathematics’ advocates for a flexible approach, as differences in how
students learn and engage with mathematics mean no single approach can meet all
learners’ needs. Teachers should draw upon a rich collection of
research-informed and high-quality strategies and be empowered to make informed
professional judgements, selecting practices intentionally, tailored to
specific contexts, learners and purposes. School leaders have an instrumental
role in fostering cultures that equip and support teachers to make thoughtful
and informed pedagogical choices in their mathematics teaching and learning.
