Jonny Hall

Jonny Hall, creator of MathsBot.com, joins the podcast to discuss the inspiration behind the website and the most important features teachers can utilize. He shares his priorities for the site's updates and teases changes for the academic year. The conversation also explores the benefits and limitations of using AI in teaching and the importance of physical and virtual manipulatives in math education. Future plans for the website and sponsorship opportunities are also discussed.

Episode 98: This week on TDaPE I'm joined by Shannen Doherty, Atul Rana, Neil Almond and Jonny Hall for an exploration of the utility of manipulatives, both virtual and physical, in the mathematics classroom. Based on the panel from MathsConf30, I ask our panellists; Are manipulatives worth it? Do manipulatives have to be physical? Which manipulative has the greatest versatility across school mathematics? and much more. Wherever your teach, whatever you teach, whether you're new to the profession or an experienced senior leader, you won't want to miss this one...
