Playfulness in Specialist Mathematics: Excited Students are Productive Students

View descriptionShare

How playfulness in the classroom can help get through content more quickly, help students communicate difficulties, and motivate them to be more engaged and excited about mathematics.

Australian Education Awards 2023’s Rising Star of the Year, Stephanie Thomas, joins Allan to share her unique approach to teaching her Specialist Mathematics and year 11/12 General Mathematics classes. She explains her promising results from creating a playful and excited culture within the classroom, giving students room to explore, inquire, and question, being brave when trying something new, and developing more than just good test results from students.
