Lead Institution: University of the West of England
This final project report outlines the implementation of the HE STEM project, Online Numeracy Resource and Nursing, which was a collaboration between the Nursing and Mathematics departments at the University of the West of England. The report includes a discussion of the learning and impact that has resulted from the work carried out. It also addresses the issue of the sustainability of the project outputs.
The project developed an on line numeracy resource with two main components. One is the use of an on line assessment system DEWIS that has been adapted to enable students to self-assess their level of numeracy. The second is an on-line decision making tree that is populated with patient case studies and applied numeracy skills. This twofold approach will provide a flexible resource with the potential for a far reaching impact across the South West region and all gateways to higher education.
