Is There a Transfer of Maths to Other Subjects?
I'm always fascinated by how much of maths pedagogy transfers to other subjects. I think particularly those that have been researched by cognitive psychologists and it might be easier for maths teachers or teaching maths because a lot of the examples are quite often mathematics based. For instance something like retrieval practice will work equally effectively across the curriculum. There's no reason why we can't do that in history. And scaffold and really thinking carefully about the information we present to pupils. So then that will almost alleviate some of the cognitive burden on those people.
