    New numeracies: the social practice of functional skills and social justice
    (2011-11-01) Tolley, Sarah; Hughes, Janette; Greenlaw, Jim
    This thesis explores how creating and performing digital numeracy texts, affords students learning opportunities in Mathematics that demonstrate their numerical social practice. In an environment that celebrates performance before competence, students explore how to design and engineer their digital understanding of social justice issues, such that they begin to connect their numeracy to socio-cultural issues in both local and global communities.
