The MSOR Network is operating the HE Curriculum Innovation Project as part of the Mathematical Sciences Strand of the National HE STEM Programme. This aims to facilitate and support innovation within mathematical sciences course delivery and design.
I am the HE Curriculum Innovation Advisor for the Project and my work is broadly in three areas:
- Mathematical Sciences HE Curriculum Innovation Funding and by the time this issue of Connections arrives we will be processing applications to the second funding call announced via the MSOR Network website and via email in October;
- Research into current practice and sector priorities and in January we will be running a high-level Summit on mathematics curriculum to inform this process; and
- Dissemination and staff development; look out for upcoming workshops as part of this Project on the website.
In the first call for funding six projects were funded and here I describe two that seem relevant to this issue of Connections and address progression and assessment practice.
