Mathematical Literacy Of Students In Teaching Mathematics In The First Year Of Studies

The aim of the project outlined in this paper is to launch a new performance tracker of students' mathematical performance. Our project consists of two parts - data collection and analytical assessment - both of which will happen over three academic years. The data collection will result in a detailed database of students' math grades. This will provide us with a solid basis for understanding the overall performance of our students and any links between students' secondary education background and their university grades. More broadly, we aim to gain more insight into approaches to students' motivation, and, over time, we aspire to track the impact of any changes to lecturing materials or assessment framework on students' performance. As lecturers this will also add an indirect feedback loop for the quality of our teaching. for students from various types of schools. We aim to publish our findings by 2017.
