Closing the Numeracy Gap with Elevate My Maths: A Case Study from University of Derby

In 2019, the University of Derby partnered with Vretta to improve numeracy levels and career prospects of students across the institution. Twelve custom-built training courses have been jointly designed and deployed to 1500+ students through blackboard in various modules and programmes, the library skills website, and the University’s Maths Hub.

During this session we wish to share the lessons learned through this journey, and to invite the participants to experience these courses for themselves. An interactive Demo will be provided to all EAMS participants on the software demo page. It will allow participants to diagnose gaps in their fundamental maths skills, to engage in interactive upgrading lessons, check their new levels of mastery, and, if successful, earn a digital badge.
