Motivating Mathematics demonstrates that pupils can be motivated by
being given the Big Picture, including a clearer picture of the
nature of maths, and by linking topics to the sciences, rather than
teaching each topic in isolation. The author emphasises the many
virtues of problem-solving, strongly emphasised in secondary
education specifications, especially the role of perception, and
the ability of pupils to create their own proofs and to appreciate
'cool' ideas and arguments.David Wells draws on his extensive
experience of teaching primary and secondary pupils and his
understanding not just of how students think about mathematics, but
of how they feel about a subject which so often seems merely a
collection of facts and rules to be mastered. This book will be of
immediate practical use to teachers and students at all
levels.Anyone involved in mathematics education will benefit from
reading this inspiring book, whether classroom teacher, trainer,
teacher in training or professional development, or even parent.
The book will also be of interest to policy makers and others with
an investment in the future of mathematics education.
