The ex Cambridge University physicist and educator Sanjoy Mahajan (of Streetfighting Mathematics renown), has been busy with an outfit called Center for Curriculum Redesign (CCR) which is here.
Mahajan has continued his interests in teaching maths and physics without rote learning methods - building on the pioneering work of Louis Benezet (1935), Etta Berman (1935) and Harold Fawcett (1938) also re-counted in Flener (2001) HERE.
His latest at the CCR is the following PDF - Maths, Methods & Tools.
Earlier proposals and great references are HERE.
It's great to see that he is still going strong and bringing our attention to the shortcomings of rote learning.
