I think these IB Maths Studies books are still current - we no longer offer the course so looking to shift. Anyone fancy them? Based in Bristol.
How has this never occured to me previously - top tip for anyone else scanning exam booklets for submission.
Replying to @MrColebourne
trim off the stapled spines then feed in through the MFD scanner

Right then, A level Maths part of our TAG sample. Anyone got any tips for efficient scanning of A4 exam booklets?

I am delivering CPD to colleagues on Friday about how to effectively use live whiteboards in online teaching - what would you say the benefits are of using live whiteboards? What have been your 'quick wins'? I will share the presentation once it's finished. Thanks.

Using live whiteboards (whiteboard.fi) is transforming my online teaching - it's almost as good as being in the room with the students.

Hello Twitter, it has been a while. Anyone out there using GCSEPod to support students independent learning in Maths? Would be great to get a sense of best practice. TIA #mathscpdchat #mathschat

EBI: Don't use time as excuse. Find time.
WWW: My thinking is now much more 'big picture' - yet equally, more focused on T&L. #elp1
EBI:Integrity and competence mean much more when you're a leader than they might as a teacher. What evidence do I have of my integrity?#elp1
WWW: Coaching with @tallbloke46 was v useful. Exploring ideas around vision and asking questions of myself that I don't really want to #elp1
EBI:The scenarios were challenging; lots of possible responses. How to decide what action is best if our current experience is scant? #elp1
WWW:Coaching seems to be an effective way of getting me to think through my ideas and have found the 'plan' has been easier to action. #elp1
EBI: PMI was tough; interpreting some of the quotes a challenge. Need to apply PMI to 'real life' to get a sense of its practical use. #elp1
WWW: Found the discussion around our T&L model to be really productive. What's important/necessary, particularly in relation to trust. #elp1
EBI: It is difficult to take the 'big ideas' and make them practical for me in my role - I need to start breaking ideas down; small steps!

WWW: I valued the "picture cards"; talking through leadership issues with colleagues helped me think about how I am viewed and my next steps
