dc.description.abstractThe Kenyan government mandates one digital device per child in elementary grades, making it possible to test if the need for early numeracy intervention can be addressed by introducing Emerging Literacy in Mathematics (ELM) software in teaching and learning mathematics. This brief reports on the study conducted in 14 grade-one classes from 7 primary public schools in Mombasa area (2019). Designed as a strong test of ELM, it unfolded in authentic classroom conditions. Outcomes strongly suggest that the use of ELM significantly improved young students’ mathematical abilities over those of students from the control group.en
