| Abstract
|
:
|
There is an increasing need for numeracy skills in all aspects of life. What Teachers Need to Know about Numeracy explores the issues that are emerging regarding the teaching of these skills, beginning with preschool and the early years of primary school through to adults with poor numeracy skills. It draws on research and relevant literature from several different countries to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject and contains many links to other sources of information and additional resources.
