Enhance your awareness of what mathematics strategies work best – and WHEN those practices are best leveraged to maximise students' ownership of their learning.
Session 1: It's not enough to know what strategies work best – it's knowing WHEN those practices are best leveraged to maximise students' ownership of their learning. Practical examples, insights and strategies to reflect on and use in your own practice is at the heart of this day. The focus will be on demonstrating how using the right approach at the right time can help you more intentionally design classroom experiences that hit the surface, deep, and transfer phases of learning. This session includes Visible Learning research, its connections to surface, deep, and transfer learning as it relates to mathematics, and the most impactful approaches to use in each stage of learning.

Session 2: Insights into Implementation #1 - Implement Metacognitive Strategies Research shows that some instructional strategies have a greater impact than others and that it's not about which strategy—it's about when you implement it. How can we ensure that we are providing powerful, precision teaching? What do some of these instructional strategies look like in practice? Join mathematics expert Shane Crawford as he explores mathematics strategies and practices that you can utilise to ensure all students make significant progress in mathematics.

Session 3: Insights into Implementation #2 - Create Mathematical Tasks How do you currently decide which mathematical task is going to best suit the learning needs of your students? In this session, mathematical tasks are analysed through the lens of difficulty and complexity to support teachers making decisions about the type of tasks they design students.

Session 4: Insights into Implementation #3 - Implement Direct Instruction Direct instruction is an intervention that provides learners with the modelling, scaffolding, and practice they require when learning new concepts and skills. It can be deliberately used by mathematics teachers to support learning. Leave this session with:
Target Audience: K-12 numeracy or mathematics leaders, curriculum coordinators or classroom teachers.
