How I Wish I'd Taught Maths: Lessons learned from research, conversations with experts, and 12 years of mistakes

by Craig Barton

I think very carefully about the methods I teach my students, asking myself: How long will this method last them? How do I move them on from this method? Is it built upon solid mathematical foundations? If necessary, I teach them in a way that is more difficult in the short-term, but which leads to greater long-term gains.
