PYTHAGORAS Project

Title

The PYTHAGORAS Project  (https://www.pythagoras-grant.eu/)

Summary

PYTHAGORAS project strives to develop policies that will make learning Mathematics more inclusive, efficient, enjoyable and real, connecting Mathematics teaching with real life cases linked to the students’ fields of study. PYTHAGORAS is a proposition to the future of Higher Education from teaching within large lecture rooms to a more personalized teaching & learning approach. All project outcomes and activities will be tailored to address the prerequisites of the partner institutions for undergraduate students regarding their fundamental mathematics background. These perquisites will be checked from all aspects: (1) mathematical content, (2) mathematical processes, (3) views about the nature of mathematics, and (4) personal characteristics of students & teachers (personal – and academic ones).
