Approaches to in-service teacher development in England and Wales concerning the use of technology in secondary mathematics.

Authors

Abstract

In England and Wales, there has been a significant investment in technology to support teaching and learning in all subjects and school phases since the mid-1990s and a number of training models and approaches have been used, which include the development of online materials to support face-to-face sessions with expert teacher educator support. This article will briefly critique a previous government-funded project, the ‘Practical Support Pack’, contrasting its approach with that adopted by the TI-Nspire English Pilot Project (2007–2008). It will finish by considering dissemination approaches to widen the knowledge of exemplar approaches to teaching and learning mathematics using technology as teacher development activities themselves.
