Motivating Mathematics encourages teachers to explain mathematics in terms that pupils can grasp, and to promote the practical uses of a mathematical education. Based on the problem-solving approach, strongly emphasised in secondary education specifications, the book helps teachers explore with their pupils the wider applications of each topic in favour of cramming lists of facts.David Wells draws primarily on the direct experience of practicing classroom teachers who are close to the learning/teaching situation, offering a unique 'insider' treatment compared with many existing academic works on mathematics education. The book will therefore be of immediate practical use to classroom teachers and their students.Anyone involved in mathematics education will benefit from reading this inspiring book, whether classroom teacher, trainer, teacher in training or professional development, or even parent. The book will also be of interest to policy makers and others with an investment in the future of mathematics education.
