On September 19th and 20th 2019, Dr Niamh O’Meara and Ms Kathy O’Sullivan attended a partners meeting in Linz, Austria to further advance their work on an Erasmus+ funded project which is seeking to develop a Common European Numeracy Framework [CENF]. At this meeting partners from Holland, Austria, Spain and Ireland laid the foundations for the CENF and discussed ideas for the numeracy modules that will be developed to enhance the skills and knowledge of adult numeracy tutors. These modules will be based on an international survey that was disseminated to adult education organisations across Europe as well as the CENF. If you are interested in trialling some aspects of these modules with adult numeracy tutors, keep a close eye on the EPI STEM website (www.epistem.ie) from April 2020.
