Kilderry, Anna; Yelland, Nicola; Lazaridis, Vicky; Dragicevic, Silvana
Childhood Education, v79 n5 p293-98 2003
Drawing on the experience of two first-year classrooms in Melbourne, Australia, this article explores numeracy learning within an information and communication technology (ICT) environment. Included are examples of how mathematical skills can be promoted and learned in such a way that children can extend their use to practical, problem-solving contexts, thus becoming numerate. (TJQ)
