With the ubiquity of IT, employees now require Techno-mathematical Literacies, the mastery of new kinds of mathematical knowledge shaped by the systems that govern their work. The education system does not fully recognise these skills, employees often lack them, and companies struggle to improve them. This project has developed prototype learning resources to train a variety of employees in the mathematical awareness and knowledge that today’s employment requires date: 2007 date_type: published publisher: Teaching and Learning Research Programme (TLRP) oa_status: green language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green full_text_status: public place_of_pub: London refereed: FALSE isbn: 978-0-85473-758-1 citation: Hoyles, Celia; Noss, Richard; Kent, Phillip; Bakker, Arthur; Bhinder, Chand; (2007) Techno-mathematical literacies in the workplace: a critical skills gap.
