A World Without Barriers to Numerical Literacy

Becoming numerate is critical for school and life success. It is essential to be numerate in order to be an informed and analytical citizen. Yet numeracy is often not given the same attention as literacy. Join this Research Briefing as we explore why math matters and how we need to change our conversation around math to prevent harmful attitudes and the spreading of mathematics anxiety. Experts will also discuss how children acquire fundamental numerical skills and how to best foster their skills and healthy attitudes towards math using evidence-based approaches.
