Objective
The project will address the problem of wide-ranging dissatisfaction with the state of mathematics education in Europe and the weak impact of RandD work on using ICT for its improvement. The project will build an integrated theoretical framework for learning through representing mathematical meanings based on evidence from experience involving a cyclical process of
- developing state-of-the-art dynamic digital artefacts for representing mathematics,
- developing scenarios for the use of these artefacts for educational added value and
- carrying out empirical research in realistic educational contexts.
The project will contribute to the theory of human cognition by studying mathematical learning through a representations-centred approach. The project will concretely impact on educational system through the development of an integrated digital learning space for math education (MathDiL) which will be available in different European languages. The consortium is uniquely qualified to carry out this work since
- they have the necessary multidisciplinarity,
- they have internationally recognised expertise and
- they have already created operational communication channels and shared understandings through prior work within an FP6 Network of Excellence.
