The Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education (ACME, acme-uk.org) embarked on the Mathematical Needs Project to investigate how both the national needs and the individual needs of 5–19 learners in England ccould best be met by a curriculum, delivery policy and implementation framework.

The article highlights key findings from the small body of research on mathematics difficulties (MD) relevant to early identification and early intervention. The research demonstrates that (a) for many children, mathematics difficulties are not stable over time; (b) the presence of reading difficulties seems related to slower progress in many aspects of mathematics; (c) almost all students with MD demonstrate problems with accurate and automatic retrieval of basic arithmetic combinations, such as 6 + 3. The following measures appear to be valid and reliable indicators of potential MD in kindergartners: (a) magnitude comparison (i.e., knowing which digit in a pair is larger), (b) sophistication of counting strategies, (c) fluent identification of numbers, and (d) working memory (as evidenced by reverse digit span). These are discussed in terms of the components of number sense. Implications for early intervention strategies are explored. Read more at:

The article is a synthesis of the fragments of research focused on teaching and learning in Mathematics, in the context of school education and meaningful learning. The research targets the links between the different approaches used in teaching, interaction during the teaching-learning process and learning outcomes. Methodologically, the dataset consists of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods studies and meta-analyses. According to the findings, the use of contextual, concrete and social approaches promotes meaningful learning in mathematics, although with certain refinements. The analyses reveal that high-quality learning in mathematics requires guidance during student activities and evaluation with immediate feedback during the teaching-learning process. It also requires the skill among
teachers to choose suitable contexts and learning tools, and to focus the students’ communication on what is relevant. Read more at:

The project CD (Children;s Diverse) was developed through the Australian Learning and Teaching Council aiming at developing primary teacher education students’ professional capacities for children’s diverse mathematics achievement and learning needs. The term ‘diversity’ encompasses children’s age and achievement levels, interests, backgrounds, learning styles, learning and social skills, rates of learning, and learning environments.
