The use of assessment by teachers for a variety of reasons and a variety of audiences. Formative and Summative assessment methods. Recording and reporting of findings. Linking school systems to a national framework. Making assessment an integral part of planning and delivery. Assessment criteria and methods of assessment in Mathematics at Key Stage 3, GCSE and AS/A2 Level. Issues of moderation and achieving a standard that is consistent in a single establishment and across a national cohort.

Learning outcomes will be assessed through:
A 2000 word assignment on assessment and its role in Mathematics
Assess Learning Outcomes 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Workshop reviews of subject content, examples of assessment and lesson planning. The sessions will respond to the emerging needs of the associate teachers in their preparation of material for teaching. This will involve examining appropriate approaches to particular topics, taking into account both contemporary thinking within the discipline, and the constraints of school syllabuses. You will also make use of standard textbooks and key learning resources to refine your subject understanding.

You will apply the understanding you gain through your reading and the university sessions to your lesson planning and assessment strategies. You will have opportunities to discuss with your tutor specific issues concerning the nature and significance of various aspects of Mathematics.
