Publications
The ALM-IJ editorial team is delighted to announce that they are publishing Online First a series of articles about numeracy and digital technology, each of which has a different focus but raises some challenging points for consideration. The following articles are now available at https://alm-online.net/alm-publications/alm-journal/:
|
- Numeracy in Paramedicine Education. Andrew Bell, Linda Galligan and John Latham
- Adjusting to a Digital Environment. Marcus Jorgensen
- Family Learning Online During Lockdown in the UK. Beth Kelly, Mary Devlin, Tessa Giffin and Linda Smith.
The main objective was to offer a platform for teachers around the world to share their experiences of adult numeracy and pedagogies through the use of digital tools. We would like to thank all the authors for these interesting articles and the ALM-IJ Editorial team for their work in getting these published online.

ALM Virtual Seminar Series
We plan to hold more virtual seminars starting in the New Year 2022 and full details should appear on the website very soon. We are planning four or five seminars, to be held at a similar time to last year (weekday evenings, around 7pm UK time). The proposed seminars will include interesting and highly relevant contributions from a mixture of ALM members and partner organisations that are also interested in adults learning mathematics. Please check the ALM website and the next bulletin for further announcements of dates and speakers. If anyone is interested in proposing a seminar which would be of interest to our members please do email Beth Kelly at chair@alm-online.
