[Maths-Education] 14-19 inquiry

[Anne Watson]

One for UK people only I'm afraid.

I am working on the pedagogy strand of the 14-19 inquiry.  So far the 
submissions have not been very informative about pedagogy, and those which 
do address questions of pedagogy in an informed way are mainly from 
university mathematicians or HE organisations with ideas of how things 
should be for those who might progress to university to do mathematics as a 
main or service subject.  Nothing wrong with that, of course, but it would 
be good to have some submissions about pedagogy 14-19 for the remaining 
majority.  I am therefore asking for more considered contributions about 
the questions on pedagogy, which can be found on the Inquiry website: 
www.mathsinquiry.org.uk

If you have already made a submission and do not wish to add anything, 
there is no need to send me anything.  I am after what ELSE can be said, 
particularly about pedagogy, teaching styles, lessons which can be learnt 
from the Strategy, engaging adolescents and so on.

DO NOT PRESS RETURN but contact me directly.

Thanks

Anne
