Collaboration between Math Didactics and CeLeKT

26 of September, 2007 By: Daniel Spikol

We have recently started a pilot project in which we are exploring new ways of working with geometrical problems at grade 8th (perimeter, area and volume) combining mathematical concepts together new media and mobility. Dr Håkan Sollervall and Dr Per Nilsson, members of the Math Didactics research group, and Katrin Lindwall and Marcelo Milrad from CeLeKT are working together with several teachers at Araby school here in Växjö. Trials with the students will start in the coming months.

These activities are part of our recent common research efforts in the field of Learning Science and Didactics at MSI, VXU and they are tightly coupled to research that is very relevant to the teacher training program given by our university.
