So we all closed our eyes, thought of seeing the parallel lines meet... and half believed it true...
The project on Collaborative Teaching Practice and the History of Mathematics began in September 2006 and is completed by the conference ‘What works in the classroom’ - held at the London Mathematical Society, 26th September 2008.
Over the course of the project three secondary schools, with a total of fifteen teachers and three primary schools with a total of three teachers have been involved. More than 450 pupils have been involved in the project at various times, spanning the age range between ten and fourteen and covering all ability ages.
To learn all about the project, as well as how this type of cooperation between teachers can be used as a model of continuing professional development, download the paper on it which was presented at the ICME11, Mexico 2008.
