Assessing problem solving: call for examples

20 March 2015

As part of our wider work on teaching, learning and assessing 'mathematical thinking' ACME is exploring the assessment of problem solving and reasoning across all phases.

We are therefore looking for interesting questions that you believe assess problem solving and reasoning, to feed into ACME's analysis.

These can be from across all phases, can be historical or current, international or from England and the wider United Kingdom.

You may also want to point us in the direction of interesting projects that are looking at this issue or resources that have been developed.

Please send your examples and other information to acme@royalsociety.org by the end of April 2015. In addition, please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any queries.

The call will be put out widely and this topic will be further discussed in the coming months and at ACME's Mathematically Thinking conference on 9 July 2015.
