30 Design Strategies and Tactics from 40 Years of Investigation

Burkhard & Pead (2020)

This paper discusses some of the design approaches used in 40 years of work at the Shell Centre for Mathematical Education – and some examples from other groups – for which there is some evidence of efficacy. These range from detailed tactics for designing student activities to more “political” strategies for fostering change at system level.
