Ability grouping and teacher judgements at age seven and children’s maths self-concept at age 11

Ability grouping and teacher judgements at age seven and children’s maths self-concept at age 11
We are continuing to run the Term 3 programme of research seminars as webinars. As with normal seminars, everyone is able to join live at the time and, technology permitting, there will be a recording available afterwards for UCL members on the Moodle course for DLL Research Seminars: https://moodle.ucl.ac.uk/course/view.php?id=19643 Look forward to "seeing" you there! In this DLL Research Webinar, Dr Tammy Campbell (LSE) uses data from the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) to examine two factors predicting children’s maths self-concept at age 11. Maths self-concept is important, not least because it affects choices of educational pathways and because it influences attainment. Previous research indicates consistently that girls are more likely to have a lower sense of their capability in maths than boys. Additionally, both ‘ability’ grouping and teacher judgements have been evidenced as affecting children’s self-concepts.
