Afterwards, Project Manager Endre Borsos provided more information about the concept of the program. He said the goal of the Smart E-MATHS project is to develop a differentiated, e-learning-based methodological innovation that contributes to the effectiveness of mathematics education. As a result, children will be able to work and study on a tablet as part of their classroom education.

A good educational software must have an appropriate, user-friendly framework with interesting content tailored to the needs of the target group, ie the content requirements of the application: short, concise, informative and 21st century curricula that take into account students’ age and level of preparation. elaboration of tasks.
