Warm-up exercises to help students apply what they've learned in fields of Mathematics.

Course Description

Participants will revisit the elements and process of lesson study. Based on the examples and case studies shared during the session, participants will learn to develop a research topic and subsequently plan for a lesson study on the teaching and learning of mathematics, to be potentially conducted in class. With reference to the curriculum, learning theories and desired outcomes, participants will be writing a detailed lesson plan comprising various aspects of the lesson including pedagogy, use of resources, organization and management, human resource, and anticipated responses. Participants are required to complete the lesson plan, to be used for discussion and critique on Day 2. Practical issues and challenges pertaining to the lesson study planned will be discussed.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to:

1. Gain an overview of the lesson study cycle for the teaching and learning of mathematics
2. Identify and develop research topics and questions
3. Write a detailed lesson plan for the lesson study
4. Plan for various aspects of the lesson study in addition to the lesson development

Course Delivery

Course will be delivered by zoom webinar

27th December 2021. 12pm to 3pm UAE

Mr Brandon Oh

Brandon, who holds a Masters degree in Mathematics Education, is an educator with more than 20 years of experience in the education sector. He is currently a published author, trainer and education consultant. He writes educational books, professional development contents and teaching and learning resources, and conducts workshops for educators both locally and overseas. He also provides consultation in educational works to schools, ministry of education and private organizations, in curriculum works, as well as the content and pedagogy in the teaching and learning of Mathematics and Science. Among his recent projects were the review and revision of the National Mathematics Curriculum for Azerbaijan and Qatar. He also visited classrooms around the world to help teachers improve their effectiveness in mathematics teaching

As an associate lecturer for Marshall Cavendish Institute and Marshall Cavendish Education, Brandon conducts mathematics and science workshops both locally and overseas to students, teachers, parents and editors. For primary and secondary mathematics workshops and seminars, Brandon Oh often shares pedagogical content knowledge and the learning theories essentially adopted in the teaching and learning of mathematics, in addition to the subject content knowledge. He promotes the importance of problem solving and the problem-based learning approach as an effective, student-centered pedagogy to achieve mastery of mathematical concepts, and develop desirable skills and attributes. For science, Brandon Oh advocates the 5E instructional model and the inquiry approach to promote an inquisitive mind, active learning and the development of process thinking skills among students. He promotes environmental friendliness and conservations through his involvement in agricultural and green projects, and its education with local schools.

Prior to this, Brandon was an senior education officer under the Ministry of Education in Singapore for 13 years. Being the Head of Mathematics Department, the Chairman of Innovation and Enterprise Council and in the school management committee, he had led and implemented numerous large scale projects, trainings and workshops for the school.
