Addressing maths/stats anxiety

February 28, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

The University of Chester is pleased to announce that we will be hosting a sigma Network workshop on Maths/Stats Anxiety at our beautiful Queen’s Park Campus on Friday 28th February. The event is aimed at all maths/stats support colleagues who work with students experiencing maths/stats anxiety and wish to learn more, and/or have something to share. The workshop is free to attend, with lunch and refreshments provided courtesy of The University of Chester.

 Speakers planned for the day include:

 *Keynote*: Sue Johnston-Wilder, University of Warwick  “Raising awareness and addressing statistical anxiety”

 Chetna Patel, De Montfort University

Ellen Marshall, Sheffield Hallam University

 Lightning talks and discussion

Delegates are invited to submit a proposal for a lightning talk on the day’s theme, Maths/Stats Anxiety. Each talk should be no more than 8 minutes and provide one or two discussion points for delegates. Ideally, a small amount of interactivity within the talk would be great, too. A standard PC/projector set-up will be available for the lightning talks.

We look forward to meeting you in Chester.

Nick Goddard (Maths Skills Adviser, University of Chester)
