The NCETM Maths Podcast

Remote teaching: the digital revolution?

Listen Later
Two tech-enthusiastic teachers discuss what’s been learned by remote teaching, and what still limits learning

This podcast was recorded in July 2021 in the final weeks of a very disrupted school year.

Over the past decade, Andy has been exploring the possibilities offered to maths teaching by ‘digital ink’ (being able to hand-write on a screen). He found this invaluable to his teaching during the two school closure periods, and we wanted to see what Kyle thought about his ideas. Kyle has appeared on the podcast previously: Remote teaching returns 1 – Kyle Evans and Kathryn Darwin | NCETM

Until March, Andy Lumley was teaching at Cheadle Hulme School in Stockport. Kyle Evans teaches and leads maths at Barton Peveril sixth form college near Southampton.
