NCETM offers workshops based around leading and supporting the development of digital technologies in mathematics

A range of CPD workshops which formed the four-day course ‘Leading and supporting the development of digital technologies in mathematics’ have been made available online by the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM).

This course, delivered in two sets of two-day sessions, was funded by the NCETM and written and tutored by members of the Association of Mathematics Education Teachers (AMET) and National Association of Mathematics Advisors (NAMA). Over 50 people followed the course with representatives from the ITE sector, Local Authorities and teachers from schools (primary, secondary and further education).

The workshops are now entirely accessible on the NCETM website are arranged by phase; Primary and Secondary and within that by theme of the digital technologies.

Some of the themes explored include:

  • Using ICT to develop children's problem-solving skills (Lower Primary)
  • Using the outside everyday environment to promote mathematical learning back in the classroom
