More Information
E-handbook for mathematics is innovative project addressed to lower secondary schools. As a result an interactive, multimedia e-book for mathematics for 1st grade of the secondary school was developed. The handbook (student version) is available to download from the website (http://www.epodrecznik.ydp.com.pl/download.php?download=epodrecznik).
Users can get basic information on the technology, structure and content of the handbook as well about the methodologies how to use it from the guidebook (http://www.epodrecznik.ydp.com.pl/download/Instrukcja_stosowania_uczen.pdf)
To facilitate the didactic process model lesson plans were also created. This project provides a comprehensive source of materials for teachers of mathematics.
Teachers’ Opinion
It is intuitional and easy to use educational resource. There a lot of animations and presentations so it is attractive to students. It is a new way of showing the material to the students. New technologies should be wider exploited in the schools nowadays. The instruction for E-handbook is helpful to implement it in school.
Students’ Opinion
The e-handbook looks good. It is very modern so it could encourage students to learn, not only mathematics. You can have the materials on your laptop. It has animations and illustrations. It is good if you don’t have to carry heavy text handbook for the classes.

Initiative is contemporary and suitable for teaching/learning purpose. The students are reluctant to read printed textbooks but they willingly use computers and internet resources as a source for gathering information.
As my experience shows the students prefer to carry out interactive tasks at teaching/learning websites.

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.
