Using ICT to support Numeracy Outcomes The Knox network of Numeracy Leaders

How do we use ICT? For assessment For planning As a teaching tool To support lessons As evidence of learning ICT in its various forms has, and will continue to have, an important place to play in the teaching and learning of mathematics. New forms of web-based technology have the potential to create new “spaces” for learning in all subjects. In particular, they have the potential to engage students as active contributors to their own learning, and to re-define the times and spaces when and where learning occurs.
