Metacognition Teaching & Cooperative Learning: Think Aloud
There are many issues in mathematical sciences HE teaching and learning that, if you are just setting out on an academic career or hoping to, you will need to address during your time as a lecturer. A lively discussion considered mathematics HE teaching and what might be expected from graduates of mathematics degrees. The talk gave developments – recently undertaken or that may be needed – in HE curriculum, drawing on examples from work funded by the Mathematical Sciences HE Curriculum Innovation Project, including from a high level Summit convened in January 2011 to discuss priorities in curriculum development in HE mathematical sciences. Details are given of a £150000 funding call for curriculum innovation projects in mathematical sciences which is currently open to bids. Recorded at Young Researchers in Mathematics 2011, 14th March 2011, University of Warwick. The Mathematical Sciences HE Curriculum Innovation Project is operated by Peter Rowlett, MSOR Network as part of the National HE STEM Programme.

Dr. Nancy Casey, associate professor of education, presents Why We (Should) Teach the Way We (Should) Teach: How Learning Theory Should Impact the Design of Classroom Experiences. Casey’s presentation focuses on how learning should directly impact how teachers teach. “New research on the brain and traditional learning theory provide powerful guidance for teachers at all levels,” said Casey. “In any teaching-learning situation, teachers must be guided about what we know about learning and how learners learn. They must design their teaching to be responsive to the needs of the learners.” Casey stresses that teachers at all levels need to acknowledge that the important thing is not the teaching, but the learning. This presentation is part of the Extraordinary Classroom Experience Series at St. Bonaevnture University. To view the full presentation, go to is.gd
