@RJS2212 Stupid ways of teaching which don't promote understanding. Pic is exhibit 1

#mathscpdchat pic.twitter.com/Hpel4s9jS7

RJS2212Robert J Smith@RJS2212

3 YEARS AGO

This doesn't promote understanding @missradders but probably helps lots remember the "facts"!!! #MathsCPdChat

Hannah@missradders

3 YEARS AGO

@RJS2212 They can "remember" the facts by deriving them from the triangles. #mathscpdchat

Mary Pardoe@PardoeMary

3 YEARS AGO

@RJS2212 #mathscpdchat 'Coursework' as 'distorted' by exam boards did a lot of damage!

Apps for students and teachers

RJS2212Robert J Smith@RJS2212

3 YEARS AGO

Latest "Fad" is "Use of Handheld Technology" ie iPads - leads us onto ... What Apps shouldTeachers / Students use? #MathsCPDChat

Hannah@missradders

3 YEARS AGO

@RJS2212 VAK? #mathscpdchat

RJS2212Robert J Smith@RJS2212

3 YEARS AGO

I think @missradders she means VAK = Visual Audio Kinaesthetic ?? #MathsCPDChat

JustMaths@Just_Maths

3 YEARS AGO

@missradders @RJS2212 half it and half it again ...another example of shortcuts withoutunderstanding! only works for 1/4s #mathscpdchat

RJS2212Robert J Smith@RJS2212

3 YEARS AGO

What apps for iPAd (or other Android device) should Teachers / Students be using ??#MathsCPDChat

Mary Pardoe@PardoeMary

Hannah@missradders

3 YEARS AGO

@PardoeMary @RJS2212 I'm pretty sure anyone that's been teaching > 5 years doesn't need toguess ;p #mathscpdchat

JustMaths@Just_Maths

Levelling/grading of separate topic tests sends me over the edge! As if it actually was a valid wayof measuring progress.. #mathscpdchat

Christine Watson@clwatson999
