dc.descriptionThis intervention has been commissioned by the Department of Basic Education, South Africa.
dc.description.abstractThis is a summative rather than an exhaustive report which offers a high level overview of the research conducted relating to Learning and teaching Support Materials (LTSM) and Assessment for primary school (Grades R to 7) mathematics in South Africa. It offers a bird’s eye view of the research elements which have been undertaken for the Department of Basic Education, and points to the supporting documentation which have informed this summary. Policy makers, programme implementers, researchers, subject advisors and provincial departments of education may find this useful when choosing to invest in, or make selections from, existing LTSM and assessment offerings. The LTSM and Assessment Reviews, commissioned by the Department and Basic Education, and funded by Zenex Foundation, sought to provide an overview of available LTSM and Assessments as these are the key ingredients for improving learner outcomes in primary school mathematics. The terms of reference for this review recognised the high variation of practices in terms of what and how LTSM is used, across South African schools. In addition, the knowledge that many primary schools only make use of DBE workbooks (which were designed as supplementary resources) was noted with concern. The review of current practice and analysis of selected offerings, as summarized here, is intended to assist educational stakeholders to make informed decisions about their selections of the LTSM.
