Over 85% of prison inmates possess levels of numeracy which inhibit their employment and life chances. The aim of the project is to develop an integrated numeracy program that can be implemented within custodial institutions. By enhancing numeracy levels, the project will improve the life chances of ex-inmates and contribute significantly in reducing levels of recidivism. The project will significantly advance theory about 1) adult numeracy education, and 2) design of on-line in-service teacher education systems for adult numeracy teachers. The expected outcomes are: 1) improved adult education numeracy assessment and learning resources, 2) an on-line in-service teacher education system, 3) adult numeracy education computer software.

超过85%的监狱囚犯的计算能力会影响他们的就业和生活机会。该项目的目的是制定一项可在拘留机构内实施的综合计算方案。通过提高计算水平，该项目将改善前囚犯的生活机会，并大大有助于降低累犯率。该项目将显著推进以下理论：1)成人算术教育；2)设计成人算术教师在线在职教师教育系统。期望的结果是：1)改进成人教育算术评估和学习资源；2)在线在职教师教育系统；3)成人算术教育计算机软件。
