Summary

This pathway is designed for UK and international mathematics teachers and other professionals working in mathematics education, from primary schools to Higher Education, or those working in community-based settings.

You will be supported in integrating the theory and practice of teaching and learning mathematics by:

  • being an active researcher of your own and others' practice, including reworking your own practice;

  • carrying out small-scale research projects, one of which can act as a pilot project for the major work of your dissertation;

  • engaging with research literature, especially the current journals and activity of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (https://www.igpme.org/);

  • engaging with new developments in teaching and learning mathematics;

  • updating your mathematics knowledge;

  • writing assignments that show the emergence of a theoretical frame, presenting a literature search and developing ideas from a seminar;

  • becoming confident with presentation, argumentation, research and ICT skills.

The programme has been recognised as excellent by the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (https://www.ncetm.org.uk/).
