The concept of deep learning, as opposed to surface learning, is being increasingly recognized by teachers and, here, Anne Watson and her colleagues use it in connection with enabling so-far low attaining students to recover their self-esteem and mathematical capabilities. This essential guide for mathematics teachers will help to change the focus from 'doing and finishing' to 'thinking and learning'.

Part of the major new Pocket PAL Series, this one looks at the concept of Deep Progress in Mathematics (not as foreboding as it sounds!)
