FANCY WRITING A BRIEF ARTICLE?
Very conveniently, Dr. Trakulphadetkrai (the Founder of MathsThroughStories.org) also serves as Co-Editor of The Mathematical Association's Primary Mathematics journal.
The Mathematical Association is a professional society concerned with mathematics education in the UK, and was established in 1871 (!) The Association has several journals, one of which is Primary Mathematics, which is practitioners-oriented, and attracts over 5,000 readers.
For the Summer 2018 issue, Dr. Trakulphadetkrai hopes to make it a Special Issue with a focus on the power of storytelling in mathematics learning. He is very keen to hear from both practitioners and researchers (UK and beyond) who can contribute a brief article (2-3 pages) on this topic. If you are interested, please get in touch!
