1) The ‘please get on with your work’ answer: You will use it for your exam, so please be quiet and don’t ask that question again.
2) The short answer: The brain is a muscle, which responds well to solving problems logically and thinking analytically. By working the muscle in this way, we improve our reasoning ability and our cognitive capacity.
3) The long answer: You will almost certainly never use the vast majority of this content again… and perhaps that’s an issue that warrants a discussion.
'Why are we learning this?' delves into the challenges that teachers, schools, and students face, particularly in light of the Covid-19 pandemic. It offers honest analysis and actionable suggestions for maths teachers and parents. Readers will explore domestic and international examples, which show how relevant schooling can open up doors for students that would otherwise remain firmly shut. This book bangs the drum for teachers and schools to be at the forefront of tackling the catastrophic disadvantage gap that exists in education today.
By making some changes to policy and practice, ‘Why are we learning this?’ is a question that no maths teacher should ever have to answer again!

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
