Engage in practical and collaborative learning and investigate real-world examples drawn from the Australian Curriculum v.9 and senior secondary year curricula (SACE and IB).

In these workshops you will:

• explore teaching for understanding strategies and learning methodologies
• investigate open ended problems to engage all students (at ability levels)
• develop tasks that promote mathematical thinking and high levels of conversation
• explore ways to enhance student involvement, resilience and agency (independent thinking)
• delve into effective teaching strategies for engaging students in computational thinking and mathematical modelling
• explore connections between middle school and senior school mathematics teaching programs
• develop strategies for leading mathematics teaching and learning in schools
• share useful resources
