It is now available to schools across the&#13;<br \/>\ncountry for children in Year 3 to Year 10 classes, through The Learner First, a&#13;<br \/>\nconsultancy working with schools across Australia. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>The latest TIMSS (Trends in&#13;<br \/>\nInternational Mathematics and Science Study) found that Australia&#8217;s achievement&#13;<br \/>\nin mathematics has improved since 2015. However, Year 4 mathematics achievement&#13;<br \/>\nhas not changed since 2007. One of the biggest challenges facing educators is&#13;<br \/>\nto find better ways to meet the learning needs of the many students who fall&#13;<br \/>\nbehind in schools, failing to meet year-level expectations (often year after&#13;<br \/>\nyear) and, as a consequence, become increasingly disengaged.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Knowledgehook&#8217;s proprietary technology&#13;<br \/>\nharnesses the power of data to track where students are on their math journey.&#13;<br \/>\nTheir programmes connect a child&#8217;s at-home learning with in-school education,&#13;<br \/>\nproviding real-time insights to teachers on learning gaps. This empowers&#13;<br \/>\nteachers to develop an understanding of the maths concepts related to their&#13;<br \/>\nstudents&#8217; challenges, enabling them to adjust instruction and monitor student&#13;<br \/>\nprogress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img src=\"https:\/\/release.media-outreach.com\/release.php\/Images\/Thumb\/500x0\/124943\/Knowledgehookimage2.jpg#image-124943\" width=\"500\"\/><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Knowledgehook: The Instructional Guidance System for&#13;<br \/>\nteachers<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>As Knowledgehook launches across&#13;<br \/>\nAustralia, <b>former Australian Mathematics&#13;<br \/>\nCurriculum leader, Margaret Bigelow<\/b>, commented: &#8221; Australia&#8217;s results&#13;<br \/>\nin international testing are improving. The impact of a national approach to&#13;<br \/>\nteaching and learning Mathematics has impacted on this improved outcome.&#13;<br \/>\nTeachers need to be supported to maintain this trajectory of improvement by&#13;<br \/>\nhaving the ideas and tools to enhance the engagement of their students to&#13;<br \/>\ndevelop critical and creative thinking and further mathematical skills. This will&#13;<br \/>\nenable students to adjust to the ever-changing demands and challenges of life&#13;<br \/>\nin the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Knowledgehook was inspired by my own&#13;<br \/>\nstruggle with maths as a child,&#8221; explained <b>CoFounder and CEO of Knowledgehook, Travis Ratnam<\/b>. &#8220;Having the&#13;<br \/>\nright, personalised guidance makes all the difference and every student&#13;<br \/>\ndeserves to have a teacher who has access to the best pedagogical tools, and&#13;<br \/>\nparents who have insights into their learning.

Moreover, it helps teachers retrace their&#13;<br \/>\napproach and identifies what may have been missed allowing them to recover and&#13;<br \/>\nembed essential skills and concepts.
