CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA - News Direct - 16February 2021 - Knowledgehook, theworld's most comprehensive mathematics learning platform, has launched inAustralia as the nation's teachers turn a corner in addressing low mathsattainment levels for young people. It is now available to schools across thecountry for children in Year 3 to Year 10 classes, through The Learner First, aconsultancy working with schools across Australia.

The latest TIMSS (Trends inInternational Mathematics and Science Study) found that Australia's achievementin mathematics has improved since 2015. However, Year 4 mathematics achievementhas not changed since 2007. One of the biggest challenges facing educators isto find better ways to meet the learning needs of the many students who fallbehind in schools, failing to meet year-level expectations (often year afteryear) and, as a consequence, become increasingly disengaged.

Knowledgehook's proprietary technologyharnesses the power of data to track where students are on their math journey.Their programmes connect a child's at-home learning with in-school education,providing real-time insights to teachers on learning gaps. This empowersteachers to develop an understanding of the maths concepts related to theirstudents' challenges, enabling them to adjust instruction and monitor studentprogress.

The impact of a national approach toteaching and learning Mathematics has impacted on this improved outcome.Teachers need to be supported to maintain this trajectory of improvement byhaving the ideas and tools to enhance the engagement of their students todevelop critical and creative thinking and further mathematical skills. This willenable students to adjust to the ever-changing demands and challenges of lifein the future."
