Teach, Do, Practise, Behave: Equality *NEW
In this webinar, we will look at how we can phase the learning of equality using the teach, do, practise, behave model. In particular, we will examine a segment of a learning episode on solving equations, including some useful tasks, models to use to offer opportunities to connect ideas and develop conceptual understanding, and a focus throughout on how we can plan a coherent approach to the communication of equality.

Teaching with Multiple Representations *NEW
In order to effectively communicate the technical detail of mathematics to our pupils, we must utilise multiple representations. However, this cannot be done in a tokenistic way as it will do more damage than good! In this webinar, we focus on some key mathematical ideas and show how offering multiple representations at particular points in the learning can significantly improve understanding.

Responsive Teaching
In this webinar, we will take a deep dive into what it means to be more responsive in the classroom. We will work on example tasks/prompts that exemplify how we can gain a better idea to whether true understanding has taken place. Corrective teaching is of paramount importance in the mathematics classroom and we will look at some of the research and models of how we can make this work in practice.

Lessons from Cognitive Science *NEW
The research field of cognitive science is a highly debated area, as most of the research has been done in laboratory conditions with little to no school-based studies. However, there is a lot we can learn. Using our own strategic knowledge of effective mathematics teaching we can take the research recommendations and make it not only work but enhance the learning experience we offer pupils.
