This purchase is for whole of school use (multiple people)

Presenter: Dr Claudia Orellana-Farias

Audience: Years 3-9

Webinar synopsis:

Assessment plays a key role in teaching. It can assist us in determining prior knowledge, monitoring student progress and informs our future planning. With the rise of different applications and online tools, there are greater opportunities to assess students' mathematical knowledge in various ways, both formally and informally. This presentation will showcase selected online resources that are available to teachers and highlight the type of information that can be gathered from each.

Presenter: Emeritus Professor Peter Sullivan

Audience: All primary and secondary years

Webinar synopsis:

Among the reasons for the current attention to Explicit Teaching, is that some problem-solving experiences place a demand on learners’ cognitive load inhibiting their capacity to engage. This session will illustrate ways that cognitive load can be managed so as to ensure students have the capacity to engage and to preserve the advantages of learning to, and through, problem solving.

Presenter: Associate Professor Jill Brown (Deakin)

Audience: Foundation-year 8

Webinar synopsis:

Mathematical Modelling is now embedded in the Australian Curriculum. It involves the solving of real-world problems. Hence, students use mathematics to gain insight into real-world phenomena as they make sense of real-world situations and problems and make decisions about possible solution approaches. This webinar considers what modelling looks like in school classrooms and how teachers might prepare for, and implement, modelling tasks. Several modelling tasks are used in the webinar to discuss various aspects of modelling.
