Proje Özeti

The aim of this twinning project Horizon 2020 "Enhancement of research excellence in Mathematics Teacher Knowledge" (MaTeK) is to develop the excellence of the Department of Mathematics Education (DME) at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of Comenius University in Bratislava (FMPI CU), by becoming a national and internationally recognized institution in the field of mathematics education research. The goal of MaTeK is to provide the DME opportunity to learn from partners, to exchange best practices, and establish extensive networks for excellence. MaTeK will twin DME with Departments of Mathematics and Mathematics Education of the following universities: Charles University in Prague (CUP), Czech Republic, University of Palermo (UP), Italy, Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim (NTNU), Norway and Middle East Technical University (METU), Turkey. Thus, MaTeK’s activities will enable to strengthen research profile and scientific excellence of three institutions from Widening countries. That might be an exceptional case, among other projects. We will implement MaTeK through five work packages (WP) with clear and measurable deliverables; each participating institution will lead one of the WP. The DME will adopt a new practice of knowledge transfer, international academic partnership, and development of excellent science. Within H2020, we will exploit the connection for submitting joint research project proposals. The DME will transfer its knowledge and scientific excellence to other HEIs in Slovakia.
