Since its first publication, Teaching Secondary School Mathematics
has established itself as one of the most respected and popular
texts for both pre-service and in-service teachers. This new
edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect the major
changes brought about by the introduction of the Australian
Curriculum: Mathematics, as well as discussing significant research
findings, the evolution of digital teaching and learning
technologies, and the implications of changes in education policies
and practices. The mathematical proficiencies that now underpin the
Australian curriculum -- understanding, fluency, problem solving
and reasoning -- are covered in depth in Part 1, and a new section
is devoted to the concept of numeracy. The chapter on digital tools
and resources has been significantly expanded to reflect the
growing use of these technologies in the classroom, while the
importance of assessment is recognised with new material on
assessment for learning and as learning, along with a consideration
of policy development in this area. Important research findings on
common student misconceptions and new and effective approaches for
teaching key mathematical skills are covered in detail. As per the
first edition readers will find a practical guide to pedagogical
approaches and the planning and enactment of lessons together with
enhanced chapters on teaching effectively for diversity, managing
issues of inequality and developing effective relationships with
parents and the community. This book is the essential pedagogical
tool for every emerging teacher of secondary school mathematics.
'The text offers an excellent resource for all of those involved in
the preparation of secondary mathematics teachers, with links to
research literature, exemplars of classroom practices, and
instructional activities that encourage readers to actively examine
and critique practices within their own educational settings.'
Professor Glenda Anthony, Institute of Education, Massey University
'A rich and engaging textbook that covers all of the important
aspects of learning to become an effective secondary mathematics
teacher. The second edition of this text ... is further enhanced
with updated references to the Australian Curriculum, NAPLAN, STEM,
current Indigenous, social justice and gender inequity issues, and
the place of Australian mathematics curricula on the world stage.'
Dr Christine Ormond, Senior Lecturer, Edith Cowan University
