BSRLM Working Groups

BSRLM Geometry Working Group

Coordinators: Keith Jones and Taro Fujita.

The Geometry Working Group focuses on the teaching and learning of geometrical ideas in its widest sense. The aim of the group is to share perspectives on a range of research questions that could become the basis for further collaborative work. Suggestions of topics for discussion are always welcome. The group is open to all.

ITE Mathematics Working Group: Addressing the New Standards

Co-ordinators: Sue Pope and Julie-Ann Edwards

Following the successful bid to the TDA to continue funding the ITEmaths project, groups have been established to develop material to support both new and experienced tutors. BSRLM, AMET, ATM and MA are active partners in this initiative with AMET playing a lead role. In order to draw on the wide experience of the mathematics ITE community the ITEmaths working group provides a forum for sharing experiences and identifying ways forward.

NCETM/BSRLM Working Group

Developing a framework for researching CPD in mathematics Co-ordinators: Rosamund Sutherland and Colin Matthews

The aims of the research projects instigated by the NCETM are:

  1. to investigate "what works" in terms of professional development in mathematics;
  2. to promote and develop a culture of PD where action research is at the heart of good professional practice, by encouraging teachers to become active researchers and supporting them in doing so; and
  3. to develop communities of practice as a result of the research. The aim of this group is to work on a framework for researching CPD in mathematics. We shall also discuss outline plans for a review of literature in the area.

Maths Identities Working Group

Co-ordinators: Heather Mendick, Laura Black, Margaret Brown, Melissa Rodd and Yvette Solomon

Following the completion of the successful ESRC seminar series: Mathematical relationships, identities and participation' http://ioewebserver.ioe.ac.uk/ioe/cms/get.asp?cid=4381&4381_0=12442 the organising group would like to continue our working discussions at BSRLM. We shall be planning a working group session in the first part of 2008 and would like to invite BSRLM members to participate in this BSRLM working group.
