Opportunities of using digital tools in mathematics and science lessons.

As an expert of the Association for Hungarian Digital Education (AHDE), I have participated in several projects in Hungary and abroad (e.g. Geomatech project, Erasmus+ projects). In addition to research activities, the aim of the projects is to develop teaching materials that can be put into practice. The focus of the projects and the teaching materials is mainly on the development and compilation of digital tools for the teaching of mathematics and science.

Opportunities for developing 21st century competences in primary school with a special focus on STEAM subjects.

In the framework of several Erasmus+ projects (as a member of the Hungarian Association for Digital Education), with the participation of several countries, we are exploring the possibilities of developing 21st century competences among primary school children from different perspectives, involving psychologists, practitioners and teachers. Based on the results obtained, one of the objectives I am involved in is the development of good practices and the production of teacher training materials.
