The Janet Duffin Award RME 2021

15th March 2023 by Karen Skilling

The BSRLM Executive is delighted to announce that the latest Janet Duffin Award has been made to Nancy Barclay for her paper:

Barclay, N. (2021). Valid and valuable: lower attaining pupils’ contributions to mixed attainment mathematics in primary schools. Research in Mathematics Education, 23(2), 208-225. https://doi.org/10.1080/14794802.2021.1897035

The Janet Duffin Award is presented annually for the most outstanding contribution to the Research in Mathematics Education journal. The award for Volume 23 was decided by a poll of BSRLM members, based on a shortlist compiled by the journal Editors and Advisory Editors. The award will be presented at a future BSRLM day conference where Nancy will give a plenary lecture.

Two further papers were highly commended:

Erickson, A., Herbst, P., Ko, I., & Dimmel, J. (2021). When what routinely happens conflicts with what ought to be done: a scenario-based assessment of secondary mathematics teachers’ decisions. Research in Mathematics Education, 23(2), 188-207. https://doi.org/10.1080/14794802.2020.1855600

Marks, R., Foster, C., Barclay, N., Barnes, A., & Treacy, P. (2021). A comparative synthesis of UK mathematics education research: what are we talking about and do we align with international discourse? Research in Mathematics Education, 23(1), 39-62. https://doi.org/10.1080/14794802.2020.1725612

The Janet Duffin Award is made thanks to a generous gift made to the British Society for Research into Learning Mathematics (BSRLM) by Bill Duffin, in memory of his wife Janet, a longstanding and active member of the Society. The Fund covers the costs of the Janet Duffin Award and Lecture.
