Elevate My Maths

Elevate My Maths is an award-winning online platform designed to support numeracy skills training through a personalised programme of assessments and interactive lessons.  It is designed to help students prepare for success in higher education by checking on their proficiency levels in fundamental maths, providing them with an upgrading module as necessary, and building their confidence as they prepare for further education and training. It was developed by Vretta, a leading educational technology company based in Canada, whose stated mission is “a world where everyone enjoys maths”.

 

How does Elevate My Maths work?

Elevate My Maths uses the principles of assessment for learning and comprises three components for each maths topic:

  • Diagnostic assessment in which a student’s proficiency at the topic is determined through a short (10-item) test;
  • Upgrading module of interactive lessons in those topics where a proficiency of less than 80% was achieved in the diagnostic test;
  • Summative assessment in which the student demonstrates his or her proficiency at the topic, following completion of the upgrading module.

Numeracy skills digital badges will be awarded following completion of a program.
