As a part of the MoStart 2024 conference, two workshops with InAMath activities for teachers were held: Art and Technology in Math classroom (B.Crnković, V. Mikulić Crnković) and Preparing educative 3D models (I. Marić i M. Zovko).
On December 21st, 2023 we held the workshop Secrets of Cryptography for a group of gifted children in Elementary school “Milan Brozović” Kastav.
On December 19th, 2023 we held two workshops: for students of the Teacher Study and students of the undergraduate study Early and Preschool Education of the Faculty of Educational Sciences, Juraj Dobrila University of Pula.
The analysis of the research results carried out in the InAMath project was published in a scientific article published in a renowned journal SAGE Open.

We are very happy to inform you that the Agency evaluated the final report of the project with a maximum of 100 points and marked it as an example of good practice!

Conference paper and conference presentation “Development of computational thinking through interdisciplinary activities in mathematics education” by Bojan Crnković, Vedrana Mikulić Crnković and Ivona Traunkar were presented on 9th International Scientific Colloquium Mathematics and Children, Osijek, Croatia (May 19th – May 20th, 2023).
International Day of Mathematics (IDM) is celebrated around the world every year on March 14th. March 14th was chosen as the date for IDM because it was already celebrated in many countries as Π day. The International Day of Mathematics project was initiated by the International mathematical union with support from numerous international and regional organizations from all over the world. 14.3. was declared the International Day of Mathematics at the 40th UNESCO general session on November 26, 2019, and was first celebrated on March 14th, 2020.
All countries are invited to participate in activities for students and the general public in schools, through activities in museums, libraries, etc. Each year a theme is determined (which has nothing to do with the number Π) and promotional materials are designed, as well as ideas for activities. “Mathematics for everyone” is a topic for the year 2023.
In addition to the common topic, all participants are invited to participate in one challenge, which changes from year to year. All information and materials are available on the website https://www.idm314.org/.
Through the website, institutions have the option to register their own activities and thus appear on the map of all institutions that joined the International Day of Mathematics.
We suggest some of the activities that can be held in classrooms in the article “Međunarodni dan matematiku u Pi ritmu”, published in the journal MIŠ: Matematika i Škola.
We are happy to announce our final official InAMath TPM meeting which will be held in Rijeka, Croatia from February 13th until February 15th, 2023!
Faculty of Mathematics, University of Rijeka participated in the event Rijeka tehnologije from January 30th until February 2nd, 2023 with activities developed within InAMath project: math ride (30.1.2023.), Ecsher tiling and Treasure hunt: secrets of cryptography (1.2.2023.).
Full program of Rijeka tehnologije can be found here.
InAMath education for teachers “An interdisciplinary approach to teaching mathematics” was held in the Faculty of Mathematics, University of Rijeka on the 20th and 21st of January, 2023. There were 39 teachers from 18 different elementary schools who participated in education and their feedback was very good! We bring you some photos from education and the full program.
