Mathematics Education Review
The Journal of the Association of Mathematics Education Teachers
We hope that this journal will become a much more important source of
sharing reflection on our practice in mathematics education. MER 11 and
MER 12 have included examples which describe and analyse what we do.
We need to build on this, to develop a strong forum for the pedagogy of
mathematics education. Articles could include:
BPRS=96 how are those working in Maths Ed working with teachers.
Modularschemes
FastTrack Pilots
GraduateTeacher routes
Use of ICT
Auditingsubject knowledge
eventhe dreaded numeracy test
We need to build a framework to add to the scholarship of teaching and
learning. We need to write about the practice of Mathematics Education
Teaching in order to analyse that practice.
HMI Cliff Gould stated at UCET meeting that HE had been bad at saying
what is good practice in teacher training =96=96 MER can offer the environ=
ment
to so do!
But we need you to write and share your good practice.
Your first opportunity is December 15th.
Due to the late delivery of MER 12, the copy date for MER 13 is now
December 15th. If you have an article which describes your practice as a
mathematics teacher educator, please send your article to:
Professor Sylvia Johnson
Editor MER
School of Education
Sheffield Hallam University
36 Collegiate Crescent

Short pieces are also welcome.
Please send 3 printed copies plus an electronic version, details at the ba=
ck
