Fitzmaurice, Olivia; Mac an Bhaird, Ciarán – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
In this paper, we report on the outcomes of a survey of students across 12 higher education institutions in Ireland and the UK. Participants were asked to give their views on what tutors should do and not do when they are providing Mathematics Learning Support to students. We present the categories that emerged from an analysis of student…
