Abstract | This study reports initial results of a larger study examining teacher practices in numeracy in the secondary sector. Survey data examined STEM teachers' confidence in mathematics topics and attitudes towards numeracy in everyday life, and the responses were compared to teachers trained in non-STEM areas. The data indicate that teachers' specialist backgrounds influence certain aspects of their numeracy. Similarities between groups highlight the contribution made by all teachers to secondary school numeracy education. (As Provided). |
