Publisher's Synopsis
With practical advice on ways to meet the demands of the great range of tests which have recently been devised to assess mathematical attainment, this book also considers how to face the challenges posed by practical mathematics, investigative work, numeracy and problem solving, and the ways that groupwork can be monitored and improved in class. The relationship between learning, teaching and assessment is explored, and useful guidance is offered to teachers on how their own teaching can be set out, negotiated and assessed.
