"Let's Count" and Community Professionals
Dockett, Sue; Perry, Bob
Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA) (43rd, Singapore, 2021)
The "Let's Count" Community Professional Pilot 2019 took place in six sites across three states (New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia). The aim of the pilot program was to implement the "Let's Count" face-to-face program for the first time with a group of people who work with young children and their families but who are not trained early years educators working within early childhood education and care centres. This paper reports on the evaluation of the pilot program with specific emphasis on expanding the reach of "Let's Count" whilst maintaining its integrity and outcomes. [This paper is the third in a symposium of three papers. For the first paper, "'Let's Count' in an Online Learning Environment," see ED616193. For the second paper, "'Let's Count' in Early Childhood Teacher Education," see ED616194.]
