Zenex Fundamentals in Early Childhood Development – Mathematical Literacy

Zenex Foundation materials designed by SAIDE, Woz’obona and COUNT on Fundamentals for Mathematical Literacy at NQF Level One, in English. It uses a problem centred approach. The materials were originally designed for ECD practitioners studying at NQF Level 1 (meeting the requirements of eight NQF level 1 unit standards to gain a qualification in Mathematical Literacy - Unit Standards 7451, 7449, 7463, 7453, 7461, 7450, 7448, 7464, 7447). The materials may also be useful for those studying at NQF Level Four, who need a bridge to the study of mathematical literacy at that level. Zenex and SAIDE are of the strong view that these materials should only be trained by trainers who have an appropriate level of Mathematical Literacy themselves, and that these trainers should receive training in the use of the materials. The course comprises learner and trainer materials.
