Australian teachers, recruited via Facebook, completed an online survey about aspects of numeracy. The survey was designed to explore views on numeracy and capacity to respond to numeracy tasks. In this paper, we focus primarily on responses to two numeracy tasks--one numerical, the other requiring critical evaluation. On the first item, 40% answered correctly; on the second, 60% performed at a level expected of people aged 17 or older. The provocative findings warrant further research with a larger sample.
