Teaching Mathematics and its Applications

Aims & Scope

The journal provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences which contribute to the improvement of mathematics teaching and learning for students from upper secondary/high school level through to university first degree level.

A distinctive feature of the journal is its emphasis on the applications of mathematics and mathematical modelling within the context of mathematics education world-wide.

The journal's readership consists of mathematics teachers, students, researchers and those concerned with curriculum development and assessment, indeed anyone concerned about the education of users of mathematics.

Contributions to the journal are invited in two forms.

Section A consists of research articles based on empirical investigation and/or theoretical argument whose conclusions inform the improvement of mathematics teaching and learning at the relevant level.

Section B consists of articles based on scholarly argument, informed by knowledge of research, such as innovative approaches to teaching with a justification for considering their wider use.

This is to encourage as wide as possible a range of authors, and the journal is keen to publish material contributed by both teachers and students.

Both sections are peer-reviewed.
