It is obvious that the reason learners get moved to Maths Literacy is because they are not coping with pure Maths. So, instead of handling the problem that the learners are facing with Maths they move to Maths Literacy.
One thing that is being not taken into consideration though by many parents is that pure Maths is not only a foundation for such important careers as engineering, medicine, science, accounting, IT, architecture, actuarial science and so on. It also builds a solid foundation for their children in critical thinking and problem-solving skills in their day-to-day life.
Every single child needs these skills and abilities to survive and succeed in today’s world not just as individuals but as professionals, employees and members of our society.
So, why do you need to be aware of it? Because it directly affects your company and it’s performance. The more such employees you have the more efficient their work is.
People with high abilities in problem solving have a natural tendency to come up with fast and pro-survival solutions in their work environment which directly affects your company’s viability and growth.
Countries with weaker Maths performance illustrated by some PISA results often show lower adult competency in numeracy and problem solving, which correlates with lower productivity and weaker employment skill levels. For example, France has been shown to have lower adult levels of Maths and problem-solving proficiency compared with other OECD countries, which analysts link with slower productivity growth.
South Africa is not an exception to it.
