Real mathematics is about inquiry, communication, connections, and visual ideas. We don’t need students to calculate quickly in math. We need students who can ask good questions, map out pathways, reason about complex solutions, set up models and communicate in different forms - Jo Boaler, Professor of Mathematics Education, Stanford University Latest News and Resources in Maths Education Superb blog by Jo @mathsjem who shares some Maths Gems each week - www.resourceaholic.com/p/maths-gem.html Hosted by Craig Barton, the TES adviser for secondary maths, these podcasts bring you all the latest news, reviews and interviews with special guests from the world of maths. It all adds up to one fascinating discussion - www.tes.co.uk/article.aspx?storyCode=6315526#.UWcAB6LvuSo or go to iTunes and look out for TES Maths Using Dropbox You will find that some of the resources are stored in my dropbox account, if you have a dropbox account which is free you can automatically sync to the checklist template files.

For me the motivation to become a
mathematician was the sheer beauty of the ideas,
structures, and new ways of looking at the
world. A world without knowing about primes,
symmetry and 4D geometry would be like never
hearing Mozart, seeing Picasso, or experiencing
Shakespeare. A world without maths would be
impoverished politically, technologically,
scientifically and culturally.

follow those who tweet mathematical ideas and if you do start on twitter can
I suggest the following people to follow
The list is clearly a starting point, but all of
these continue to provide some excellent resources, blogs, news etc...
BLOGS
If you fancy writing your own blog then Jo @mathsjem believes the top three are wordpress, blogger and weebly.
