Dr. Martin Gormley:

Mr. Irwin is right in terms of understanding, but the process within the classroom takes longer. We hear from teachers that the course is too long, particularly at higher level. If you are involved with group work and trying to get an in-depth understanding of some of the concepts Mr. Irwin mentioned around integration, differentiation and rates of change, you need to take time with students. Teachers report that they are finding it difficult to cover the course because of the amount of content.
