Scaffolding numeracy in the middle years (multiplicative strategies)
This project investigated the efficacy of a new assessment-guided approach to improving student numeracy outcomes in Years 4 to 8. In particular, it was aimed at identifying and refining a learning and assessment framework for the development of multiplicative thinking at this level, using rich assessment tasks.
