Assessment	Using Assessment to Raise Achievement in Maths
	Learning goals; self & peer assessment; effecting questioning; marking and case studies This resource explores approaches to assessment^(ta) in maths, including the sharing of learning objectives^(ta), group work^(ta), whole class^(ta) assessment, questioning^(ta) and more. Four case studies serve as useful discussion prompts to share practice^(ta). This .doc version of the QCA's 'Using assessment^(ta) to Raise Achievement in Maths' allows schools to select parts of the document that are most relevant to them.
Measuring	Thinking about measurement
	How big is it? Thinking about measurement This module introduces the uses and limitations of measuring size, as well as giving a taste of using distance learning⁽ⁱ⁾ materials for higher education. This resource can serve as a useful revision of various measures, while providing helpful insight into active learning techniques, use of real life examples, the importance of technical language, and the importance of study skills^(topic) (such as use of dictionaries, indexes, representation of information, etc.).
Patterns	Exploring Pattern
	Exploring patterns in mathematics Each chapter of this tutorial highlights the study skills^(topic) required to work through the real world examples and activities given. There are problems to be solved, some of which involve higher order^(ta) thinking skills (for example, being asked to correct a set of instructions), and all of which encourage the use of mathematical language^(ta) and mathematical thinking^(ta). The resource could also be used in class, or as a useful homework^(ta) pack.
Polygons	Exploring properties of rectangles: Perimeter and area.
	Do two rectangles that have the same area also have the same perimeter? A problem to inspire higher order^(ta) questioning^(ta) especially in whole class^(ta) dialogic teaching^(ta) encouraging pupils to engage in mathematical thinking^(ta) and language^(ta). You could use Geogebra^(tool) in this investigation, as an example of same-task group work^(ta).
Using images	Organising images for a narrative
	Write an essay without words The lesson encourages students to think about how to portray their knowledge through narrative^(ta) - which may engage some students who would usually be less interested. The lesson encourages students to think about how to capture valuable information and ensure that key elements are highlighted while not 'overloading' the viewer with data. The lesson can be tailored to any age group - for younger pupils the task could be to take before and after photos and label them. More advanced pupils might explore time-lapse photography. Pupils should be encouraged to think about how this relates to the scientific method^(ta) The task is interactive and could be conducted as a group work^(ta) activity or as an element of an inquiry-based learning project. It could also lend itself to whole class^(ta) dialogue^(ta) and the use of ICT⁽ⁱ⁾ including 'clicker' response systems for assessment^(ta) and questioning^(ta).
Visualisation	Using visualisation in maths teaching
	Thinking about visualisation in education. This unit looks at visualisation^(ta) as it relates to mathematics, focusing upon how it can be used to improve learning. It also identifies ways in which to make more use of visualisation within the classroom.
Visualisation	Perimeter of a rectangle.
	Interactive GeoGebra investigation that allows children (age 6-10) to explore an element of mathematics for themselves.
