00:00:02.920 --> 00:00:03.880
Hello and welcome.

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:06.866
This video will present
timelines showing the journey

00:00:06.866 --> 00:00:09.833
that maths education in England
and the USA has gone through

00:00:09.833 --> 00:00:10.320
over time.

00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:13.974
In this video we will explain
what the timelines are and how

00:00:13.974 --> 00:00:14.560
to use them.

00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:18.286
We conduct work where we compare
various aspects of education

00:00:18.286 --> 00:00:21.462
such as countries, curricular
assessment systems and different

00:00:21.462 --> 00:00:22.320
ways of teaching.

00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:25.583
We thought it would be
interesting to present events

00:00:25.583 --> 00:00:28.499
and various changes that have
occurred in maths education

00:00:28.499 --> 00:00:30.560
visually as it makes comparisons
easier.

00:00:31.080 --> 00:00:34.325
We created the timelines on a
website called TikiToki which

00:00:34.325 --> 00:00:37.520
has great functionality that we
will introduce in this video.

00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:41.089
We would like to thank Jackie
White who has helped us put the

00:00:41.089 --> 00:00:42.000
timelines together.

00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:46.163
Now I'm going to hand over to
Nicky, who will talk about how

00:00:46.163 --> 00:00:48.920
the timelines work and what you
can do with them.

00:00:50.120 --> 00:00:52.886
When you first see the timeline,
it's in the standard view and

00:00:52.886 --> 00:00:54.160
starts at the earliest event.

00:00:54.720 --> 00:00:57.608
The blue and purple dots at the
bottom of the screen show you

00:00:57.608 --> 00:00:58.960
the years when events happen.

00:00:59.680 --> 00:01:02.329
When you click on a year, you'll
be taken to the events that

00:01:02.329 --> 00:01:02.720
happened.

00:01:02.720 --> 00:01:07.240
Then you can change the
timeline's appearance.

00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:10.723
When you click on the spanner
icon on the bottom right hand

00:01:10.723 --> 00:01:13.386
corner of the screen, it will
open various functionality

00:01:13.386 --> 00:01:13.760
options.

00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:18.697
The Search tab allows you to
search for specific keywords or

00:01:18.697 --> 00:01:19.120
dates.

00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:26.204
This will highlight events with
the word or the date that you

00:01:26.204 --> 00:01:26.960
searched for.

00:01:30.800 --> 00:01:34.520
The Categories tab allows you to
filter by category, in this

00:01:34.520 --> 00:01:35.480
case by country.

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:39.680
So if you click on England, for
instance, it will show you only

00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.200
the events that have occurred in
England.

00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:47.081
The View Type may be one of the
most useful ones for direct

00:01:47.081 --> 00:01:50.020
comparisons between the two
countries, as it presents the

00:01:50.020 --> 00:01:51.440
timelines in different ways.

00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:55.925
The Category Bands option splits
the events into separate

00:01:55.925 --> 00:01:59.665
timelines, with England's
timelines of events at the top

00:01:59.665 --> 00:02:01.240
and the USA shown below.

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.876
This makes it easier to see what
happened in both countries

00:02:04.876 --> 00:02:05.960
during specific times.

00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:10.454
The Coloured Stories tab makes
events that happened in

00:02:10.454 --> 00:02:14.041
England in one colour, purple,
and those that occurred in the

00:02:14.041 --> 00:02:15.719
USA a different colour, blue.

00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:20.680
The Duration tab allows you to
see how long events lasted.

00:02:21.160 --> 00:02:23.953
As most of the events included
here do not include their

00:02:23.953 --> 00:02:27.139
duration, only the year in which
they happened, this view is not

00:02:27.139 --> 00:02:28.120
particularly useful.

00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:33.546
The Spacing tab allows you to
change the way that events are

00:02:33.546 --> 00:02:34.440
presented in rows.

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.707
For instance, by clicking on top
to bottom three rows, the events are

00:02:38.707 --> 00:02:40.720
now shown in three separate
rows.

00:02:41.160 --> 00:02:45.360
Clicking on five rows shows the
events in five separate rows.

00:02:46.920 --> 00:02:51.428
Please note that in some of the
view types, there's a limit on

00:02:51.428 --> 00:02:54.720
the number of views lines that
they can show.

00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:00.720
Finally, in the Tools box we
have the Zoom tab.

00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.800
This allows you to zoom in or
out on events.

00:03:04.440 --> 00:03:07.378
Zooming out either using the
minus button or by clicking on

00:03:07.378 --> 00:03:10.464
the bars on the left hand side
of the screen allows you to see

00:03:10.464 --> 00:03:11.640
more events on the page.

00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.443
While zooming in using either
the plus button or by clicking

00:03:15.443 --> 00:03:18.887
on the bars on the right hand
side of the screen shows fewer

00:03:18.887 --> 00:03:21.880
events, but you can see more
details for each event.

00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:26.813
Now I'm going to hand over to
Dominika, who's going to talk to

00:03:26.813 --> 00:03:28.800
you about the event boxes
themselves.

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:36.960
An events box contains the title
or what the event is probably

00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:40.349
about, and depending on the
chosen view type and spacing,

00:03:40.349 --> 00:03:44.205
they also show the year that the
event happened in, which country

00:03:44.205 --> 00:03:47.360
it applies to, and some
information about this event.

00:03:48.600 --> 00:03:52.500
When you click on the arrow
button, it will display all

00:03:52.500 --> 00:03:54.520
information about that event.

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.723
When you click on an event, you
can also move to the previous

00:03:59.723 --> 00:04:04.295
event or to the next event by
using the small arrows at the

00:04:04.295 --> 00:04:06.200
bottom of the events box.

00:04:08.920 --> 00:04:11.720
You will also notice that events
have icons.

00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:17.080
These icons correspond to the
theme of the event.

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.518
Each icon's background is
different to make recognition of

00:04:20.518 --> 00:04:21.360
the theme easier.

00:04:22.080 --> 00:04:25.225
For instance, the theme
Assessments and Tests is

00:04:25.225 --> 00:04:29.462
represented by a scroll with one
star on a green background, like

00:04:29.462 --> 00:04:30.040
this one here.

00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:35.920
There are seven themes that
events can belong to.

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:39.280
Assessments and Tests which I
have just demonstrated,

00:04:39.760 --> 00:04:43.991
Bodies, organisations, councils,
projects and strategies

00:04:43.991 --> 00:04:48.520
represented by an icon on a
yellow background like this one here.

00:04:48.520 --> 00:04:53.390
We also have general
events, initiatives and

00:04:53.390 --> 00:04:59.723
movements represented by a dark
turquoise background such as the

00:04:59.723 --> 00:05:00.600
one here.

00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:09.450
We have major reports, reviews,
white papers and acts shown by a

00:05:09.450 --> 00:05:11.960
light pink icon like this one
here.

00:05:13.960 --> 00:05:21.368
In addition to this we have
mathematics specific movements

00:05:21.368 --> 00:05:28.400
which are shown on a dark blue
icon like this one here.

00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:37.958
State specific information which
is for USA events only is shown

00:05:37.958 --> 00:05:40.720
on a red icon like this one
here.

00:05:42.640 --> 00:05:48.332
And we also have curriculum
which is shown by pictures

00:05:48.332 --> 00:05:54.335
representing various subjects
compiled together on a blue

00:05:54.335 --> 00:05:57.440
background like this one here.

00:06:02.440 --> 00:06:06.840
To filter by the theme you are
interested in, click on an event

00:06:06.840 --> 00:06:11.104
with that theme and then click
on the theme it has been tagged

00:06:11.104 --> 00:06:13.880
with, which is just below the
year here.

00:06:17.280 --> 00:06:20.241
This will bring up the search
tab in the bottom right hand

00:06:20.241 --> 00:06:22.600
corner with the theme entered in
the text box as you can see.

00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:26.262
On the timeline,
it will highlight the other

00:06:26.262 --> 00:06:30.046
events that have been tagged
with the same theme and grey out

00:06:30.046 --> 00:06:33.160
any other events that do not
belong to that theme.

00:06:40.840 --> 00:06:41.760
Thanks for watching.

00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.682
We hope this demonstration has
shown you how to use the

00:06:44.682 --> 00:06:47.789
timelines and that they will be
useful for you whether you are

00:06:47.789 --> 00:06:50.946
conducting research, teaching or
are simply interested in maths

00:06:50.946 --> 00:06:51.440
education.
