MatheConnect successfully stood out among 409 submissions from 58 countries and was one of only 27 projects to receive a Honorary Mention at the EU Citizen Science Award – an impressive achievement in a highly competitive environment.
The international jury praised the project with the following statement:
„The project is student-driven, with learners acting as citizen scientists to explore, design, and evaluate interdisciplinary learning materials for mathematics education. The materials meet curriculum standards while reflecting students’ own interests. The jury especially appreciated the active involvement of key actors—particularly the students themselves—and the strong alignment between educators, researchers, and learners. Mathematics and education have rarely been the focus of citizen science, making this well-executed project a particularly welcome development.“
This recognition underscores MatheConnect's innovative strength and the relevance of citizen science in education.
