James Russo

James Russo is an educator and researcher interested in a wide range of topics including: the role of challenging tasks, games, and children’s literature as pedagogical approaches; teacher and student emotional responses in the primary mathematics classroom; and the learning and teaching of mental computation and estimation. James writes regularly for a range of teacher-practitioner journals and continues to spend some of his week team-teaching in a primary classroom. He uses this as a space to develop and test teaching ideas, and to stimulate thinking about his research.
