Problem Solving in Primary Mathematics is an essential text designed to support new and experienced teachers in guiding pupils through mathematical investigations and problem solving, offering a framework that children themselves can begin to adopt as they progress to greater metacognitive awareness. Underpinned by the latest international research and theory, it examines how individual pupils think and act differently and offers guidance on how to promote independence and autonomy in the classroom. It examines key topics such as: Preparing for mathematical learning Designing learning material Assessing and evaluating learning Identifying key points for intervention What to do when learning is stalled Critical numeracy for real-world problem solving Mental Model Theory and the Mental Model Mode Different approaches to problem solving and investigatingAimed at new and experienced educators, particularly those with a maths specialism, and illustrated with investigations and activities, Problem Solving in Primary Mathematics demonstrates how frameworks can be used in key mathematical areas and assists students in progressing towards more meaningful problem solving.

Pedagogy in Higher Education provides a critical context for the exploration of the complex ways that pedagogy impacts the stakeholders of universities, and their interrelationships. The authors in this collection present a critique of the way they meet the challenge of engaging learners, across all levels of learning, in developing critical dispositions within their discipline while seeking the skills and knowledge required for them to flourish in a modern workforce. Creative, digital technologies feature in many of the narratives and authors question and probe their professional contexts to better understand and react to the multiple curricula, political and neoliberal tensions of modern universities. Encouraging critical reflection and practice, each chapter highlights implications for practice. Covering a wide range of interdisciplinary topics, such as Law, Education, Teacher Education, and Digital Technologies, Pedagogy in Higher Education provides current thinking from cross-disciplinary and international perspectives to inform colleagues and students both nationally and internationally and aims to foster discussions across universities globally.
