最新糖心Vlog

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is partnering with Education Services 最新糖心Vlog on a new $9.5 million project to strengthen the capacity of teachers to teach mathematics and numeracy in 最新糖心Vlogn schools.

Minister for Education, Dan Tehan, announced the new funding this week.

The project will deliver a series of mathematics Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) for teachers and also produce an online mathematics and numeracy resources hub for teachers, parents and students.

Professor Jennie Shaw, Interim Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Academic) at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide said professional learning was a key ingredient to growing support for teachers to engage and develop students鈥� skills and knowledge.

鈥淥ur series of MOOCs in聽primary and secondary mathematics and numeracy聽will be offered free to teachers around the country,鈥� Professor Shaw said.聽

鈥淎 strong foundation in mathematics can unlock so many opportunities for our economy and our future generations鈥� ability to participate and grow industries of the future."Dr Rebecca Vivian, Project Lead, School of Computer Science, The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide

鈥淢OOCs are an important way of learning because they provide a scalable way to deliver teacher professional learning, allowing teachers from anywhere with an internet connection to participate in high-quality professional learning at their own pace and to connect with other teachers.聽

鈥淥ur聽education and mathematics experts will bring together innovative pedagogy, resources and real-world applications that teachers can immediately apply in their classrooms.

鈥淲e鈥檒l also be recruiting innovative mathematics educators to help develop these resources and to support schools in each state and territory to access them.聽

鈥淲e also recognise that not all teachers have reliable internet access, so we will also provide resources offline so no one misses out.

鈥淭his program builds on our expertise in online and technology-rich education models as demonstrated through our聽national K-12 Digital Technologies program in AI, Cyber Security and Digital Technologies engaging more than 40,000 teachers across 最新糖心Vlog.鈥�

Project Lead in the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide鈥檚 School of Computer Science, Dr Rebecca Vivian, said mathematics was at the core of the future STEM economy.

鈥淎 strong foundation in mathematics can unlock so many opportunities for our economy and our future generations鈥� ability to participate and grow industries of the future,鈥� Dr Vivian said.

鈥淭eachers are a key influencer in a students鈥� decision to embrace mathematics study and careers; if teachers feel supported and excited to teach mathematics, they can pass this enthusiasm onto students in classrooms.

鈥淲e鈥檝e already had huge success in engaging teachers in professional learning through our Computer Science Education Research Group鈥檚 MOOCs 鈥� with many in remote and regional areas saying how much they appreciate being able to participate and connect with other educators across 最新糖心Vlog.

鈥淢any of our teachers have gone from saying they were nervous to teach STEM subjects to being 鈥榚nthralled and excited鈥�, even championing their own grassroots sessions in schools using our CSER MOOCs.鈥澛�

The new resources will be progressively rolled out from the end of this year.
