Early numerical skills are important not only for later mathematical achievement but for overall achievement and are associated with later income, health, and quality of life. Socioeconomic disparities in numerical skills are visible before children begin school, and widen throughout schooling. It is, therefore, important to support the…

Kim, Suehye – European Journal of Education, 2023
This study explores a pathway from social origin at adolescence to numeracy acquisition in young adulthood. A variation associated with vocational track attendance and numeracy acquisition between two different traditions of education systems is identified; namely, between education systems of German (Austria and Germany) and English (UK and US)…

Hübner, Nicolas; Merrell, Christine; Cramman, Helen; Little, John; Bolden, David; Nagengast, Benjamin – Child Development, 2022
Understanding how early reading and mathematics co-develop is important from both theoretical and pedagogical standpoints. Previous research has provided mixed results. This paper investigates the development of reading and mathematics in a longitudinal sample of N = 355,883 students from the United Kingdom (2005-2019) aged 5 to 12 (49% girls).…

Habiddin, Habiddin; Page, Elizabeth Mary – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
The published study of Nurrenbern and Pickering in 1987 raises awareness among chemistry educators that students' success in answering numerical questions does not necessarily reflect their degree of understanding of the related chemical concepts. Efforts have been made to provide more opportunities for students to improve their ability in…

This paper describes the collaborative development of an agenda for research on e-assessment in undergraduate mathematics. We built on an established approach to develop the agenda from the contributions of 22 mathematics education researchers, university teachers and learning technologists interested in this topic. The resulting set of 55…

Taking advantage of our digital era commodities, a plethora of game-based learning activities and educational game genres have been introduced into numerous academic disciplines. However, research has shown that regarding mathematics the variety seems limited; especially for higher level topics, e.g. calculus, there is a lack of immersive games…

Copeland, Alison; Tate, Simon – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2023
Debates about how best to support students' transition from school to university have re-emerged periodically since at least the 1970s. This paper focuses upon one aspect of this transition: how to develop the quantitative skills students acquire at school throughout the first year of their degree. We report on an attempt to inject pedagogic…

Alallawi, Barah; Hastings, Richard P.; Grindle, Corinna – Support for Learning, 2022
Research on teaching mathematics to children with autism spectrum disorder using parents as mediators is limited. The purpose of the present study was to carry out an initial evaluation of an adapted numeracy programme with three children with autism spectrum disorder from Arabic families in the UK by training and supporting their parents to…

The Early Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Mathematical Competencies on Entry into a UK University
Hodds, Mark – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2021
Students from England and Wales had their A-level results in 2020 decided by a 'triple lock' system as traditional examinations were cancelled due to the pandemic. Therefore, there was a fear that students were either being unfairly judged (Arden University 2020) or would enter university with a reduced understanding of concepts leading to an…

Clark, Matthew – Primary Science, 2020
In this article, the author describes how nature can link maths and science to develop skills in both subjects. Experiencing maths, seeing maths, touching maths, playing with maths is a great start, giving children the opportunity to learn maths in the way that science is often experienced. This article does not aim to provide an answer for fully…

Apanasionok, Magdalena M.; Alallawi, Barah; Grindle, Corinna F.; Hastings, Richard P.; Watkins, Richard C.; Nicholls, Gemma; Maguire, Leanne; Staunton, Darragh – British Journal of Special Education, 2021
Mathematics is one of the core school subjects in the UK and an emphasis is placed on developing pupils' mathematical competencies throughout all key stages. Despite that, the attainment of students with disabilities in mathematics remains low. The current study explored ways in which the Teaching Early Numeracy to children with Developmental…

Cortes, Robert A.; Green, Adam E.; Barr, Rachel F.; Ryan, Rebecca M. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Extensive evidence and theory suggest that the development of motor skills during infancy and early childhood initiates a "developmental cascade" for cognitive abilities, such as reading and math. Motor skills are closely connected with the development of spatial cognition, an ability that supports deductive reasoning. Despite the…

M.; Dionne, Ginette; Brendgen, Mara; Vitaro, Frank; Tremblay, Richard E.; Boivin, Michel; Kovas, Yulia – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Background: The number line task assesses the ability to estimate numerical magnitudes. People vary greatly in this ability, and this variability has been previously associated with mathematical skills. However, the sources of individual differences in number line estimation and its association with mathematics are not fully understood. Aims: This…

Nita, Laurentiu; Mazzoli Smith, Laura; Chancellor, Nicholas; Cramman, Helen – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Knowledge of quantum computing is arguably inaccessible to many, with knowledge of the complex mathematics involving a particular barrier to entry, creating difficulty in terms of teaching and inclusive learning for those without a high level of mathematics. Meanwhile, it is increasingly important that the knowledge of quantum…

Background: This paper estimates the causal effects of an intervention under the UK-funded Partnership for Learning for All in Nigeria (PLANE). PLANE is a seven-year (2021-2028) early literacy and numeracy program that aims to improve student outcomes in Northwest Nigeria. In this region, fewer than 28% of children and youth. Numerous factors…
