Innovative enriching education processes for Mathematically Gifted Students in Europe.

Description

"The field of teaching, learning and support to gifted students is surrounded by a lot of emotions, there is no model of definition on giftedness that researchers has agreed upon. The different models argue if giftedness is innate or if it is developed. Most of the modern models claim that the development part at least is the most important - in relation to why we should do anything at all in education for those students who we can call for example gifted, talented, excellent, or highly able. In addition, many teachers feel uncertain of how to reach their ""gifted"" students, they are unsure whether their math skills are good enough and they are not familiar with pedagogical methods on how to include the ""gifted"" in learning. Most articles on gifted education ends up ""teachers need more professional development on giftedness"". This group of teachers are the group that this project aims to support by developing an Electronic Guidebook through which they can be guided in their teaching and support to ""gifted"" students with a role of facilitators. The project intends to develop new methodologies for supporting gifted pupils in mathematics of age 10-18, which can be used inside and outside any school environment. It will also make learning more attractive and enjoyable for all pupils and will strengthen students’ skills for creative thinking. The methods could be used for other subjects of the education curricula. The project will be using previous results and experiences that project partners have. Some partners have experience in teaching methodology, researching mathematics education, organizing events and competitions for gifted or talented pupils, worked in motivating pupils, supporting and training math talented pupils, training teachers and more. The consortium consists of 7 partners including universities, schools, associations, teacher training centers, and 22 associate partners. All these experience will converge for producing an innovative set of guidelines and tools for teachers enriching their competence for supporting gifted pupils inside and outside the classroom environment. A training course will be designed in order to sustain and develop further the support system that this project will develop. The project activities contribute to the ET2020 enhancing creativity and innovation among youth. It promotes the European Cooperation on schools in the area of competences by supporting the key competence for mathematics. In addition, Europe is looking for talented students and this is evident from the European Union Parliament Study in 2015, which indicates that, “There is a shift from recruitment of international students for short-term economic gain to recruitment of talented international students and scholars, in particular in the STEAM fields, to meet needs in academia and industry, insufficient local student participation in these fields, and the increased demands of the knowledge economy”. The results of INNOMATH are expected to contribute also to the following school education priorities as described in ERASMUS+ Programme Guide:1. Supporting teachers in dealing with diversity in the classroom; 2. Supporting teachers in adopting collaborative and innovative practices, 3. Supporting schools to tackle disadvantage and to offer quality education, enabling success for all students, from the LOWEST to the HIGHEST end of the academic spectrum."
