Geomagnetism : review 2010
The Geomagnetism team measures, records, models and interprets
variations in the Earth’s natural magnetic fields, across the world
and over time. Our data and expertise help to develop scientific
understanding of the evolution of the solid Earth and it’s
atmospheric, oceanic and space environments. We also provide
geomagnetic products and services to industry and academics and
we use our knowledge to inform and educate the public, government
and the private sector
Every student counts: promoting numeracy and enhancing employability
This three-year project investigated factors that influence the development of undergraduates’ numeracy skills, with a view to identifying ways to improve them and thereby enhance student employability. Its aims and objectives were to ascertain: the generic numeracy skills in which employers expect their graduate recruits to be competent and the extent to which employers are using numeracy tests as part of graduate recruitment processes; the numeracy skills developed within a diversity of academic disciplines;
the prevalence of factors that influence undergraduates’ development of their numeracy skills; how the development of numeracy skills might be better supported within undergraduate curricula; and the extra-curricular support necessary to enhance undergraduates’ numeracy skills
