Abstract

The Pacific region faces an acute problem of numeracy skills. This is due to various factors such as resources, unqualified mathematics teachers, different curriculum in the countries and their coverage, lack of localized textbooks and learning materials, and many more. Consequently, students are deprived of good mathematics and sometimes certain mathematics topics are compromised. They arrive for their tertiary journeys with different levels of mathematics, many of them are already in the at-risk category even before they join the university, and hence are set to fail in their programmes right from the start. All these invariably show the dire and genuine need for OMDT.
