Improving Learning In Mathematics

This link takes you to the Standards Units resources. They include lots of CD and DVD materials for teacher development and the folder of resources of rich tasks. From this page you can watch them on line or download them. The folder of resources is in the middle at the bottom.

The old Standards Units produced a great set of resources including lesson activities and a booklet supporting teachers in using these and other rich tasks. They seem now to be managed or have changed into the QIA and the resources were called "Improving Learning in Mathematics." They can be downloaded or viewed on line at:

The general booklet supporting teachers in using these resources or in taking some more risks to develop mathematical understanding can be downloaded via this link to the NCETM website: http://www.ncetm.org.uk/Default.aspx?page=13&module=res&mode=100&resid=1442
