Teaching with Geoboards


This exciting course will demonstrate the power of the Geoboard for engaging and inspiring pupils. A wide range of thought provoking tasks and the pedagogy behind them will be discussed during the course.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a physical geoboard to hand, you can take part fully using a virtual version instead.
