responses of pupils to learning mathematics. While Individual work and Individual help
were reported to be deployed extensively in their classes this was not the case for
Practical work, although it was this which was seen as most likely to promote enjoyment
and motivation. Using a computer was also rated highly in relation to promoting
motivation and enjoyment. Itwas rarely deployed.
