Topic description
In this topic students will focus on key issues related to learning problems in numeracy and will consider how the broader perspective of numeracy may add relevance to the learning of mathematics. Students will examine causes of numeracy difficulties and consider implications for intervention. Attention will be given to selecting suitable assessment processes, curriculum content, and effective teaching strategies for students with numeracy difficulties.
Educational aims
Through engaging in the topic participants will:
- Be aware of current numeracy research that informs curriculum development
- Develop skills to carry out diagnostic assessments to determine numeracy teaching and learning goals
- Develop knowledge and skills to implement numeracy intervention programs for students with learning difficulties
Expected learning outcomes
On completion of this topic you will be expected to be able to:
- Describe major theories of numeracy acquisition
- Demonstrate awareness of key skills and knowledge needed for development of numeracy
- Demonstrate understanding that the educational elements of curriculum, instruction, assessment, learning, engagement and behaviour are interdependent
- Recognise that the special educator's selection, adaptation, and creation of materials and instructional variables is guided by an understanding of the implications of an individual's unique characteristics
