Hi Wardy
Great articles.
In the search to improve student learning in maths- and dare I say it- in any subject- I think there are great gains to be made by "simply" improving teacher subject competency. Pedagogy is important, but useless -no- detrimental if the information being taught so effectively is inaccurate. Yet, in my decades of teaching I have had very little training that improves my subject knowledge. It appears this is where we should be spending our education $.
Food for thought.
