Thought Control and Working Memory

In this interview Lucy discusses a wide range of research and theories surrounding working memory and the implications for the classroom, especially for maths.  Working memory is so important in helping control what we are thinking about, what we are paying attention to and what we are ignoring, and yet for some this can go awry.  Understanding Working Memory can help teachers better support young people in the classroom.
