The Case for Mathematical Literacy
2020This chapter outlines the need for mathematical literacy in modern society. We make the case for the importance of particular aspects of numeracy and digital literacy for current and future generations. We consider how the Maths Inside Project is responding to recent research in this field, to policy discussions, and to the needs of students and ...
