Description of the Experience
Students age from 12 to 14 years
 Difficulties abstraction.
 Difficulties in understanding mathematical concepts.
 Difficulties in the application of the theory in solving problems.

Choosing exercises and problems that approach as much as possible to the experience of students. Situations and objects in exercises they will have to be familiar to students to facilitate understanding of the problems
Using specialized websites offering educational videos, interactive games and exercises adapted by levels (http://www.vitutor.com, http://mestreacasa.gva.es ...). This is a change in regular classes for students which has a playful nature and encourages them to perform the exercises.

If applicable, please try to highlight how the chosen solution increased the interest of the student towards science.
Using interactive tools to perform the exercises increases concentration and has a positive effect on motivation. One factor that influences is the immediate reward of computer games (when they perform a series of exercises get their score or a compliment).

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
