There is little empirical data on the extent of home numeracy practice using technology, though previous research shows that home numeracy activities are linked with children's mathematics abilities. This study describes the process of constructing an inventory of digital home numeracy practice (DHNP-i). Parents (n = 126) of elementary children…
