LEMAT: A Project for Innovation in Teaching Mathematics

“Lemat” is an acronym for Libro Electrónico de Matemáticas, which means Electronic Book of Mathematics. It is a project developed by a group of teachers at secondary school and university levels, with two main objectives: - The design, testing and implementation of new models of teaching strategies based on new technologies and focused on student learning, creating digital contents of mathematics of general interest for students in the two last years of secondary school and university students in first year of technology and sciences - To create a work-group for collaboration between different education levels, opening up ways of communication, thinking and cooperation, and making it possible to translate its aims to the real world. Access to Lemat Project is free with an anonymous password (User: ucex0201, password: LEMAT) through the “Virtual Classroom” of Cantabria University at www.aulavirtual.unican.es.
