Abstract:
Numeracy is one of the general capabilities that it is the responsibility of every teacher to develop in their students. Many teachers, however, dislike or actively avoid mathematics. This situation tends to lead to opportunities for numeracy development in school students to be overlooked or ignored. This study aims to help teachers recognise the appropriate mathematical ideas in subjects other than mathematics, and then suggest ways in which these ideas can be acknowledged and developed in context. Three different approaches to working with pre-service high school teachers are described and the outcomes discussed in the context of building professional capital.
