Abstract:
This study first looks in depth into a model of support addressing low key maths skills in engineering courses. This new innovative 1-1 mathematics support system has been designed to provide essential key mathematics skills needed in a range of different subject areas across the different disciplines within the university. A robust 1-1 maths support system is put in place which can help weaker students first build their basic maths skills and then also help with the mathematics course material throughout the year thus leading to less students failing at the end of the year.
