  2. Math-Bridge Services • Input Content - For students - For teachers/tutors - For universities/colleges Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010

  3. Math-Bridge Servicesfor students Helps to close the Mathematics gap between schools and higher education in Europe: • Mathematics requirements in higher education often differ from what is learned in school. • The Math-Bridge system can help to ensure a successful start of studies! • The system provides access to content from top-notch European universities • Adapts to individual pace of learning • Learn what is needed when it is needed • Content is available in many languages: • Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Spanish Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010

  4. Math-Bridge Servicesfor students • Enhanced large European content sources in Math-Bridge service • Provides multi-lingual and multi-cultural access • Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Spanish • Computes and delivers feedback in interactive exercises • Extended diagnostic means (for feedback and assessment) • Includes elaborate (multi-lingual) search tool Your feedback is important!

  7. Math-Bridge Servicesfor universities/colleges • Full online remedial bridging course or additional opportunity • Content encoding for the institution by professionals • Sharing of already tested content • Local installation or hosting • Help service by professionals • Server management • Communication with other places where Math-Bridge is used • Support and training for end users, administrators, authors • Statistical evaluations • Embedding in LMS (e.g., Moodle) Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010

  8. Why Math-Bridge? • Numbers of graduated engineers insufficient, e.g. • Germany 1996: 52.278 • 2002: 31.000 Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010

  9. Why Math-Bridge? • Students lack mathematics competencies for (engineering) fields-of-study all over Europe • Drop-out rates high in Europe! 15-60% • No. of graduated engineers insufficient • E.g., Germany 1996: 52.278 • 2002: 31.000 • A possible remedy: personalized online Bridge Courses • Existing remedial courses for higher education are insufficient: • They do not adapt enough to individual students • They do not adapt enough to field-of-study • They do not illustrate early enough the importance of mathematics in field-of-study Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010

  10. Why Math-Bridge? • Existing digital European content is reused • In multiple languages • Interoperable and standard • for all colleges and universities • Existing digital content is made accessible • Semantic search • Culturally adaptive search • Interactivity is taken to a new level • Presentations are culturally adapted Math-Bridge - European Remedial Content for Mathematics - June 2010
