"It's really important in our house that you know that learning doesn't stop at the end of school. It keeps going..." Sam brought her daughter to watch her graduate, hoping to inspire her to think about how to realise her own ambitions. What's motivating you?

@tes @honeypisquared Recently at the @OUMathsStats we noticed that maths students are particularly satisfied with distance learning courses. Now it may be my ace colleagues but I think it is linked to Bernstein's idea that the regulatory rules of mathematics are meant to be shared and explicit.

In the latest @Tes Mathematips #podcast, @honeypisquared and @Itchymaths discuss what knowledge means in mathematics bit.ly/35zHzJ8

I really enjoyed this conversation about the nature of mathematics knowledge. It helps me think about when to tell and when to let students work it out.

Pleased to see my #islamicgeometry article in @ATMMathematics mag. Fun to share #MathsArt ideas. Look forward to seeing how they’re used!
