Maths Pathway is an online educational website based in Melbourne, used in Australian schools to teach mathematics. It differs from traditional mathematics doing many tests, as it is set up in a modular format, with students working on individual pieces of learning on computer and worksheet. These tests are read on laptop, and wrote on paper.
History
Maths Pathway was created in 2015 by Richard Wilson and Justin Matthys, who were concerned about a student decline in mathematics skills. The development started as a small website headquartered in a shed in Matthys' lawn. According to the website, it is featured in over 250 schools and used by 57,000 students.[1][2]
Features
Math Pathway uses a modular format where students select their work based on what proficiency level they are at, as opposed to every student completing the same tasks. Students are then required to be tested on what they have learned every fortnight. To use Maths Pathway, schools must pay a fee for each student.[3]
