One of the leading trends in mathematical education nowadays is the return to the social perception of mathematics, from the vision of an incomprehensible science linked to memories of school failures, to the vision of an essential science for society which, in addition, children as well as adults can...
An opinion piece by Dr. Katja Maaß STEM (Science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education can include connections to the world of work, by discussing fascinating questions like the following in class: How can we make the transshipment of containers from ships as efficient as possible? How can we...
Introduction We are listening nowadays about the importance of learning a code language from the school, like a new literacy. Coding skills have mainly being integrated in the curriculum of the Primary and Secondary students in a large number of European countries. The concept of computational thinking refers to...
