Note: Stages 3-4 in the UK roughly correspond to ACM Years 7-10 (NSW Stages 4-5).

Approaches to Teaching & Learning Mathematics

 * Malcolm Swan's report "Improving Learning in Mathematics - Challenges and Strategies" - a highly readable review of mathematics teaching.
 * Peter Sullivan's 2011 ACER report Teaching Mathematics: Using research-informed strategies. This is a lengthy document but every single page contains valuable information.
 * Be inspired by our national treasures Charles Lovitt and Doug Clarke in this article "The features of a rich and balanced mathematics lesson".
