Welcome to the International Curriculum Specialist Series where Fieldwork Education interviews both experts and educators on how best to improve our learning.
In our twelfth episode, Lee Hendricks, Fieldwork Education's International Curriculum Manager for the Middle Years, interviews educators Colin Gear and Pam Naylor who have been instrumental in designing and writing new creative tasks in mathematics to provide authentic links to nine Big Ideas in the IMYC. Pam and Colin explain what Model-Eliciting Activities (MEAs) are, how and when teachers should use them in the classroom, and ways to promote more rigour in the mathematics classroom.
The International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC) has been developed by the International Curriculum Association (ICA). The ICA are the creators of the international curriculums of the IEYC, the IPC, and the IMYC and provide professional development and accreditation.
