AIMS, a european project in mathematics…
… started last September 2013 and just ended last June 2015.
The main topic was about the theory of Howard Gardner : The multiple intelligences (EN–FR)
This project was entitled A.I.M.S standing for Alternatives for Innovative Maths Study.
This process of learning/teaching was developed into an Erasmus Project gathering 6 countries such as Romania, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Poland, Greece, and France. All along te project, the activities followed the different intelligences to make the students work their mathematics using different point of view (spatial, musical, kinesthetic, linguistic, naturalistic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, logical).
The outcomes are listed below :
- The Twinspace of the project (Shared webspace dedicated to the etwinning members)
- The timeline of the activities made in the FRENCH school
- The wordpress blog gathering the main activities
What is the link with the purpose of this website ?
Actually, this project was also dedicated to promote the use of new technologies in our classroom. Therefore, we started to work with our smartphone, especially with the logical intelligence. Indeed, last march, we programmed our first android app with the google tool app inventor, using both the computer and the smartphone. Finally, the students found it not only so COOL, but also so EASY !!
This was the beginning of our smartphone-oriented pedagogy.
