INVESTIGATING HOW MATHEMATICS CHANGES THE WORLD
ESTABLISHING AN INVESTIGATION COMMUNITY
• Workshop 1: Discuss, Trial & Plan – Come along to explore hands-on activities designed to support
investigation tasks, share your own investigation tasks and ideas, propose investigations to be developed,
establish development teams, and network with colleagues.
• Workshop 2: Develop & Share– Come along to share and trial developed investigations, share further
ideas, propose next steps, and network with colleagues.
• Ongoing Community: Collaborate & Connect– The long-term aim of this program is to establish a
professional learning community focused on the development and sharing of mathematics investigations
across all year levels. The plan is to create a shared bank of investigations that will be available to members
of the MASA community.
