Reading List from Mr Barton Maths arrow_back Back to Teachers Recommended Educational Research Papers for Teachers to Read My interest in educational research only really began when I spoke to the likes of Dylan Wiliam, Daisy Christodoulou, Doug Lemov, Robert and Elizabeth Bjork, Kris Boulton, Will Emney, Mark McCourt, Bruno Reddy, Greg Ashman and Tom Bennett for my Mr Barton Maths Podcast. I have also written a series of How I wish I'd taught maths workshops based on these findings, and my subsequent experience trying my takeaways from them with my students, which have gone down well in schools, conferences and workshops all around the world.

The Three Acts Of A Mathematical Story 2016 Aug 6. Here is video of this task structure implemented with elementary students. 2013 May 14. 2013 Apr 12. Storytelling gives us a framework for certain mathematical tasks that is both prescriptive enough to be useful and flexible enough to be usable. Act One Introduce the central conflict of your story/task clearly, visually, viscerally, using as few words as possible. With Jaws your first act looks something like this: The visual is clear. With math, your first act looks something like this: The visual is clear. Leave no one out of your first act. Act Two The protagonist/student overcomes obstacles, looks for resources, and develops new tools. Before he resolves his largest conflict, Luke Skywalker resolves a lot of smaller ones — find a pilot, find a ship, find the princess, get the Death Star plans back to the Rebellion, etc. So it is with your second act. What tools do they have already? Act Three Resolve the conflict and set up a sequel/extension. That’s a resolution right there.
ActionBioscience - promoting bioscience literacy Fundamental Biosciences Life sciences include disciplines of science that are concerned with the scientific study of life – including microbes, plants, and animals, including humans. Biology is an umbrella term for the natural sciences that study life, with the other life sciences serving as subfields. In our holistic approaches to health, life and wellbeing, the area of Life Sciences complements all areas of our website with a more scientific point of view to better understand the advances in bioscience and their profound implications. Also, in the area of Life sciences, we aim to promote the understanding of biodiversity of life and improve bioscience literacy to increase global ecological consciousness and promote bioscience education. Goals and Features of Bioscience on ICWB.com To achieve the beforementioned aims, this section features articles written by scientists, scientific educators and science students on a variety of bioscience-related subjects.
XtraMath When Grading Harms Student Learning There are so many forces at work that make educators grade, and grade frequently. For sports eligibility, coaches constantly look at grades to see if a student is at an academic level that will allow him or her to play. Colleges review transcripts to examine what type of courses students took and their corresponding grades. Teachers must follow policy that demands them to enter a certain amount of grades every week, month, or marking period. There's no stopping it. However, we need to reflect upon policies and practices like this -- and possibly consider regulating them. The Dreaded Zero I used to give out zeros in the hopes that it would force students to do work and learn. Points Off for Late Work I'm guilty of this one as well. Grading "Practice" Many of our assignments are "practice," assigned for students to build fluency and practice a content or skill. Grading Instead of Teaching As mentioned earlier, many teachers are required to enter grades on a frequent basis. Hope
Beautiful knowledge: Complicated numbers made simple - BBC News When will men become extinct? Which times table sums do children find most difficult? What are the most common computer passwords? We are bombarded daily with information, and it can be difficult for our brains to process facts and figures in bulk. Take a look at some of the elegant and colourful infographics from his book Knowledge is Beautiful - and see how much you are able to absorb. David McCandless says his book was created over two years, with 15,832 hours of human labour. While not an inconsiderable amount of time for a person in a lifetime, it is however just a tiny speck compared to the period covered in his Timeline of the Far Future. With information sourced from institutions such as Nasa, the Potsdam Institut and the Geological Society, the colourful, curvy timeline travels deep into the future. In 10,000 years, the book suggests, the Earth's axis will change - reversing summer and winter months. At that point, you may decide it is time for an upgrade. But... up a mountain?
