<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Brought to an American audience for the first time, How I Wish I'd Taught Maths is the story of an experienced and successful math teacher's journey into the world of research, and how it has entirely transformed his classroom.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>'I genuinely believe I have never taught mathematics better, and my students have never learned more. I just wish I had known all of this twelve years ago...'</strong></p><p>When you speak to the likes of Dylan Wiliam, Doug Lemov, Daisy Christodoulou, Kris Boulton and the Bjorks, you are bound to learn a thing or two. But when he started his Mr. Barton Maths Podcast, Craig Barton wasn't expecting to have his whole outlook on teaching and learning turned upside down. Brought to an American audience for the first time, How I Wish I'd Taught Maths is the story of an experienced and successful math teacher's journey into the world of research, and how it has entirely transformed his classroom.</p><p>Along the way we meet practical, easy-to-implement strategies including Supercharged Worked Examples, Silent Teacher, SSDD problems, low-stakes quizzes, diagnostic questions, Purposeful Practice, self-explanations, harnessing the power of the hypercorrection effect, how to (and how not to) teach problem-solving and much more. No matter your experience, teaching style or favorite number, every math teacher will find something to think about in this book.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>How I Wish I'd Taught Maths</em> is an extraordinary and important book. Part guide to research, part memoir, part survival handbook, it's a wonderfully accessible guide to the latest research on teaching mathematics, presented in a disarmingly honest and readable way. I know of no other book that presents as much usable research evidence on the dos and don'ts of mathematics teaching in such a clear and practical way. No matter how long you have been doing it, if you teach mathematics - from primary school to university - this book is for you.</p><p><strong>- Dylan Wiliam, Emeritus Professor of Educational Assessment, UCL</strong></p><p> </p><p><em>How I Wish I'd Taught Maths </em> is a rare and wonderful book, one that could only have been written by someone with Craig's devotion to teaching and willingness to become immersed in the research literature on how people learn. In clear, concrete, and compelling terms, Craig illustrates evidence-based ways to upgrade mathematics instruction, ways that are often unintuitive and/or at odds with prevailing educational practices. It makes us wish that young people the world over might have the good fortune to find themselves in classes that incorporate Craig's insights. In fact, whereas Craig writes, 'I'll be honest - this book has been created for maths teachers', we think that Craig's 'lessons learned' can, with some creativity, enhance any teaching.</p><p><strong>- Robert A.
