How can EdTech improve efficiency and effectiveness in Maths? PLE
'The impact of using digital manipulatives has on children's understanding. They're able to see the resources being used in real-time. When they're doing a subtraction equation that needs renaming, they can see exactly what's happening. And you can screencast it as well. It makes a nice video that the teacher can make, that the child can also make'

'The impact for me as a maths director has been a greater insight into the mathematics at each school within my trust. When I meet with maths leaders, I can have more targeted conversations about their planning and teaching impact within their schools. I think teachers now have a wealth of data and information about the maths teaching that's going on in their class, so I can help them unpick that data and make it more meaningful to put into future planning, future intervention groups, and future interactions with their children.'

What classroom cultures are in place to allow learners to use EdTech to support their maths? PLEO 24a
'We've given children the same tools in their maths lessons to help them autonomously help themselves with a math question they're stuck with. These digital skills have enabled children to have this on-demand effect if they're stuck with something. If they need help with something, they can, on-demand, seek help as and when they need it, not being reliant on teachers to come and help them. They can also take this home if they have homework or a task they need to work on outside the classroom.
Those skills transcend the lesson outside into whatever workplace environment they're in where they can help themselves independently based on the skills they've been taught in the lesson'
