More time needed for multiplicative reasoning trial
In 2015, the Department for Education published a new report describing a randomised controlled trial of a pilot of the Multiplicative Reasoning Project (MRP). MRP focuses on developing teachers' understanding and capacity to teach topics that involve multiplicative reasoning to Key Stage 3 (KS3) students. The pilot was delivered by the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of
Mathematics (NCETM). Approximately 60 teachers in 30 schools engaged in three regional professional development networks led by professional development leaders and supported by university researchers. At school level, the programme was implemented by two core teachers in each school. Approximately 36-54 hours' worth of high quality research-informed curriculum materials were also created.
