Course Description

Using technology in the Primary Classroom is now mandated by ACARA. However, often the ways in which technology is used in Mathematics is less than ideal. Brent Hughes and the educators at Matific are changing this.

Matific is a resource that is used all over Australia and the world to engage students in their classrooms and at home. Learn how to best ensure that your students are tapping into the capability of online resources.

This course is designed to support teachers who are teaching at a school which has a Matific licence. Any teacher doing this course will be given a FREE Matific account for their personal use so that they can get a full understanding of the potential of Matific.

I have worked in the primary education space my entire career, first as a teacher and maths tutor and now as a teacher educator and consultant. I am passionate about working with schools and teachers to try and challenge the perception of mathematics. Ultimately I plan to change the way that Australian students and teachers interact with maths.
