Abstract
In this article, the authors describe how they helped their prospective teachers to understand numeracy by writing open-ended mathematical tasks based on articles from the news. 'Mathematics in The News' may be a useful rich context for teachers to consider using in their school mathematics classes, with the potential to prompt students' mathematical thinking.
