Project summary
The EC’s research on “Mathematics Education in Europe, Common Challenges and
National Policies” highlights the concern over a signi?cant proportion of students lacking
basic skills in math, which is identi?ed as a key competence for personal ful?llment,
active citizenship, social inclusion, and employability. The OECD’s PISA study shows that
many EU states have below-average student attainment in math, particularly in geometry,
where only 35% and 20% of children, respectively, master geometric forms and
measurements. Pupils’ lack of arithmetic understanding and self-con?dence, as well as
teachers’ mathematical expertise, are identi?ed as challenges. To address these
concerns, Khan Krum collaborates with PASOS and MATEI on the “GEOKIT” project, aimed
at creating novel and eUcient tools for teaching geometry to primary school pupils. These
tools can bene?t societies seeking innovation and those seeking to improve their
children’s performance in math.
