Maths Mobile Learning with the Milage+ Learn platform
Course summary
Porto, Portugal
6-day Course
Erasmus+ KA1
In this course, participants will explore the free MILAGE Learning+ platform (Android and iOS), developed to help maths’ teachers as well as other subjects, enabling students to access educational content in and outside the classroom.
This functional app works as a support tool for students, providing them with the opportunity to autonomously solve given exercises compiled in worksheets. Simultaneously, it supports teachers when managing classroom time, by not having to provide solutions to exercises, which are already integrated into the app.
The MILAGE Learning+ app interface incorporates gamification features, segmenting different levels of exercise difficulty to support students with greater difficulties and also motivate more advanced students in learning maths. To integrate everyone, the app provides detailed exercise solving videos for students with more difficulties. There is also a concise essential steps video to guide students through exercise solving. In addition, this platform also includes a self & peer assessment to stimulate the student to work independently.

Notice:
The course fee for our 2022 courses has been adjusted to meet the new KA1 grant budget (Erasmus+ Programme 2021-2027). Before, sending organisations received 70€/day/person for course fees. Now, the new KA1 grant provides 80€/day/person.
