#178 Research in Action 25: The impact of the home environment on maths attainment with Vic Simms

Vic Simms is a Professor of Developmental Psychology at Ulster University.

This episode is part of my Research in Action mini-series, where I interview a researcher from the Mathematics Education Centre at Loughborough University about their chosen area of interest, and the implications for maths teaching and learning.
