Abstract

One of the themes of ALM 23 was policies for and models of numeracy, and several contributions to ALM 23 focussed on these matters. This paper is a report on an all-conference symposium which aimed to discuss this theme. This is not a discussion paper, rather it is a collation of the outcomes of the symposium. Our hope is that this will facilitate future discussions and investigations in this area.
