Maths Hub Work Group: Embedding Technology in Level 3 Maths

Overview

Level 3 Maths Work Groups are extended professional development programmes, run in partnership by Maths Hubs and the AMSP. This poster shows how the post-16 professional development support offered by Maths Hubs and the AMSP complement each other. Each Work Group is an ongoing collaboration between teachers from local schools and colleges led by an expert in maths professional development.

Embedding Technology in Level 3 Mathematics Teaching Work Groups will explore where, when and how to use technology to enhance students’ understanding. Participants will develop their own practice as a technology champion in their department.

Aims

• Participant teachers will increase their confidence to further develop their own technology skills and further embed the appropriate and effective use of technology in their lessons
• Colleagues in the participant teachers schools will benefit from this increased confidence and knowledge through the technology champion role
• The opportunities to use technology within CPD for maths teachers at participant schools will also be enhanced through the technology champion role
• As a result of these developments, students in participant schools will, through increased and improved use of technology, develop improved conceptual understanding and engagement with mathematics

Who will benefit from attending?

Teachers of A level Mathematics and Further Mathematics or Core Maths, and especially those wishing to develop the use of technology in Level 3 teaching with others in their department.

Teachers will find this Work Group particularly useful if they have previously completed other technology-focused professional development, and want to pioneer their department’s approach to using technology in the future.

State-funded schools, colleges and academies can participate in Work Groups for free.
