Journey to the CORE of A2 Pure Mathematics

This course is designed to be hands-on with delegates ‘doing’ lots of mathematics throughout the day. This will enable delegates to not only personalise the content to strengthen their own subject knowledge but also to appreciate the students’ perspective. 

During the day we will:

·         Try out engaging, practical and easy-to-use resources and approaches to learning

·         Explore ways of providing effective opportunities for rich dialogue

·         Identify common mistakes and misconceptions

·         Learn some useful strategies for encouraging students to be active participants in  lessons and be responsible for their learning

·         Explore the progression from GCSE Higher Mathematics to AS/A2 Mathematics

·         Evaluate the resources available and create your own ideas to use with your students

·         Find ways to consolidate learning and ideas for revision
