Abstract / Description:
"Eric Schollar's Primary Mathematics Research Project (PMRP) combines an innovative intervention in primary schools to improve basic numeracy with carefully-designed monitoring and evaluation. Eric's earlier work identified some of the impediments to basic numeracy. Eric conducted a field test of pilot version of the intervention in 2007, and in 2010 implemented the intervention on a large scale in part of Limpopo. Eric will be reporting on his more recent follow-up data on these interventions."
