Projects/Interests:
  • RM MathsAlive! MathsAlive
    - a government funded R&D project in 2000/1 to produce high quality digital curriculum materials in mathematics for 11-12 year pupils. Subsequently developed in 2001/2 to a full commercial product by Research Machines for the 11-14 mathematics curriculum. Teachers plan lessons using a web-based tool, and access a range of materials to support e.g. Interactive Whiteboards, dynamic geometry, graphical calculators, games, simulations and videos, Word files with lesson plans, notes, tests, homework etc.

  • On-line CPD for secondary mathematics teachers called ESTUICT(CPD)
    Enhancing Subject Teaching Using ICT (Continued Professional Development) - again focussed on the 11-14 mathematics curriculum. During 2002/3 the government commissioned groups to set up a website of materials and resources to support secondary school subject departments. The plan was for this to be the basis of a CPD programm involving some face-to-face contact with a tutor and then continued e-mail support. Take up has been much slower than expected and the government is currently reviewing how best to make these materials widely available to teachers.
