Maths training

Starting in October - some free maths training for 'A'level Geography teachers.

This event is part of the Geography and Core Maths Initiative, which is being run in conjunction with the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) For further information and resources see www.rgs.org/geomaths.

These free, online sessions are for geography teachers who wish to build their confidence in teaching the mathematical content of A Level Geography. The seven sessions will look at a range of statistical content. During the sessions we will model approaches to teaching mathematical content and share ideas on how to engage students in meaningful discussions about data in geography.

The course will include a joint session with other subjects, demonstrating the power of using the free software Desmos in teaching and the links between the Level 3 Core Maths course and other subjects.

Aims
  • Develop confidence in teaching the mathematical elements of geography
  • Understand how studying Core Maths will support with the mathematical components of geography
  • Network and share ideas with other teachers
