Abstract

This paper compares between four instructional design approaches used to enhance pupils’ numeracy skill. A literature review performed on four approaches that have potential in enhancing pupil’s numeracy skill. Those approaches are e-Learning, Mobile Learning, Gamification and Problem Based Learning (PBL). The review focuses on design and development of the selected approaches and compares those approaches based on previous studies. The literature survey suggests that e-Learning and gamification are the most suitable instructional design tools to enhance pupils’ numeracy skill.
