Teaching and learning algebra pre-19: report of a Royal Society/JMC working group
This report presents the findings of a working group, established by the Royal Society and the Joint Mathematical Council, to consider the teaching and learning of geometry in schools and colleges. It was initiated following the publication of results of international educational comparisons, the 1999 revision of the National Curriculum for English schools 11-16, and at a time of several major policy initiatives in education.
The working group considered the rationale for a geometry curriculum, including possible content and issues concerned with its effective teaching. This report reflects its agreed views on the state of geometry teaching 11-19 and the major issues needing to be addressed to bring about improvements.
