Session Description

We know the importance of reasoning for making sense of learning in mathematics. This is a skill that must be developed from the early years of a person's education. Reasoning helps us to connect important mathematical ideas, making new learning easily accessible and understood. It is a process that is grounded in action; yet we are finding it difficult to include in our planning. This practical workshop explores the importance of mathematical reasoning and demonstrates practical ways that it can be achieved.

Key takeaways:
1. Assessing mathematical reasoning.
2. Understanding some strategies to develop mathematical reasoning in students.
3. Engaging in reasoning processes to appreciate the importance of reasoning.
