Numeracy

Southbank International School teacher Stefanie Waterman discusses how their school has been using the International Schools’ Assessment (ISA) for over a decade to inform their teaching and programming.

ACER is conducting an evaluation of a remedial learning program in literacy and numeracy for primary school students in Zambia.

A long-term national decline in reading, maths and science achievement has led, for the first time, to Australia’s achievement failing to exceed the OECD average in one of the assessment domains.

Sue Thomson and Kylie Hillman explain the significance of the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment, ahead of the release of results from the latest cycle.

ACER has been investigating how effective parents, teachers and students consider report cards to be, and the results reveal room for improvement.

ACER works with the Scottish Government, in partnership with Twig and SCHOLAR, to develop and deliver assessments of literacy and numeracy learning progress. Since 2017, more than one million assessments have been completed by learners throughout Scotland.
