Teaching with Multiple Representations


In order to effectively communicate the technical detail of mathematics to our pupils, we must utilise multiple representations. However, this cannot be done in a tokenistic way as it will do more damage than good! In this course, we focus on some key mathematical ideas and show how offering multiple representations at particular points in the learning can significantly improve understanding.
