Building community capital to support sustainable numeracy education in remote locations

全民算术是国家政策的优先事项。它使学生能够做出选择，为他们自己和他们的社区带来健康、多产和充实的生活。尽管有了一些改进，但土著和非土著在全港计算能力评估方面的成绩差距正在扩大。土著长老认为，他们的子孙识字和算术技能不如他们。因此，迫切需要新的、更有效和可持续的方法来改进土著算术教育。拟议的研究将通过探索建立社区资本的模式来满足这一需要，以支持偏远地区可持续的算术教育。

Numeracy for all is a national policy priority. It enables students to make choices that lead to healthy, productive and fulfilling lives for themselves and their communities. Despite some improvements, the gap between Indigenous and non-indigenous achievement on territory-wide assessments of numeracy is growing. Indigenous elders believe their children and grandchildren have less literacy and numeracy skills than they do. As a consequence, new, more effective, and sustainable ways to improve Indigenous numeracy education are urgently needed. The proposed research will address this need by exploring a model for building community capital to support sustainable numeracy education in remote locations.
