Abstract
The Georgia Numeracy Project Individual Knowledge Assessment of Number (IKAN) written assessment is a video-based assessment used in Georgia to assess Grades 4-8 numeracy mastery. IKAN written pre/post assessment data were collected spring and fall 2021 and spring 2022 semesters at a Georgia instituion of higher education in a Foundations of Numbers and Operations course to assess K-8 preservice teachers mathematics numeracy knowledge. Students' numeracy knowledge increased during the course but almost all students did not complete the course with the highest possible stage scores. These data support the assertation a content course can positively impact student knowledge. These data also show that more focused work is needed in content courses that prepare future K-8 preservice teachers in order for these teachers to teach Grades 4-8 numeracy knowledge.
