Picture of translating research to classroom application

I hope to always be that academic who can translate research into real life classroom application. What teachers need is practical strategies, not waffles of theories.

The Goompi Mathematics model.

Throughout this year, I have been inspired by the Goompi model by Prof. Matthews from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Mathematics Alliance. In today's webinar, I learned that mathematics is a reflection of our reality and that maths comes from culture. Mathematics is all about country.

My list of professional reading for summer

I belong to two amazing book clubs: The University of Melbourne’s fiction book club and Educator’s Book Club. This is my list for Educator’s Book Club summer reading.
