Maximising the opportunities presented by digital technologies in numeracy teaching
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

We propose a 2-year project under Key Objective 2 of the Erasmus+ programme, under the title “Maximising the opportunities presented by digital technologies in numeracy teaching”. The project will build, in part, on work of the Leonardo project (2011-2013): Best practice in mathematics education in the vocational classroom . It will seek to be cross-sectoral in nature, to facilitate learning across sectors in the different partners’ countries. Project aims: The project’s overarching aims are to: • identify and share, across educational sectors, the value of integrating digital technologies into numeracy teaching in VET, adult education, higher education and schools • provide opportunities (during the project and afterwards through produced materials) for educators to use digital technologies to maximise the impact of learning and teaching in numeracy Project outputs/activities: During the project’s lifetime we will: • carry out a literature review of international research into effective use of digital technologies in the teaching of numeracy – to establish if it can be used effectively, and if so, how it should be used • undertake a multi-country survey (including countries outside the partnership) to identify current practice in the use of digital technologies to teach numeracy • carry out study visits in partners’ countries, where appropriate, to observe and record effective practice in the use of digital technologies to teach numeracy to adults • produce a project report on effective practice in using digital technologies to teach numeracy • produce guidance for teachers on effective practice in using digital technologies to teach numeracy • produce resources for teaching numeracy using digital technologies • produce a training session for teachers of numeracy on how to use digital technologies in teaching and learning, including the use of the resources we have produced. Project outcomes: By the end of the project we will: • have increased European educators’ knowledge and understanding about the potential value of using digital technologies in post-16 numeracy teaching and learning • have increased knowledge and understanding of the different sectors of education in our own and each other’s countries • have improved numeracy teaching and learning for learners, across sectors, as a result of our increased knowledge, skills and understanding in teaching using digital technologies Partners: The following organisations will participate in the project: Ireland: Trinity College Dublin UK: Learning Link Scotland and LTA Solutions Ltd Finland: Vaasa Vocational Institute Denmark: Centre for Resources for Teaching and partners Switzerland: Swiss Federation for Adult Learning (as an associate partner, funded by the Swiss government)
