MathCityMap 3.1.16

The MathCityMap application offers a multilingual interface, catering to users from diverse linguistic backgrounds.

Rooted in the concept of math trails first proposed in Melbourne, Australia in 1984, MathCityMap represents an evolution of this engaging educational approach. Since its inception, numerous mathematicians and educators have recognized and advanced this innovative idea. Our team has introduced a modern perspective on the project through the integration of mobile technology.

Designed with students in mind, the MathCityMap App enables users to embark on math trails during school lessons or for personal exploration through a mathematical lens. Utilizing GPS technology, the app guides users to various mathematical tasks along their chosen trail and provides real-time feedback on their responses. Additionally, it offers hints for those who may encounter difficulties with specific problems.

The accompanying MathCityMap web portal serves as a resource for educators and creative individuals interested in developing their own tasks and trails. High-quality submissions are made publicly available, allowing users to combine them with their personal tasks to create tailored math trails. Furthermore, these public contributions serve as inspiration for others seeking to design their own activities. All created math trails can be navigated using a smartphone or printed via an auto-generated PDF file. The web portal also includes tutorials for beginners, relevant publications on math trails, and general information on engaging with mathematics in outdoor settings.
