We are very pleased to welcome the Landesberufsschule für Handwerk und Industrie Bozen as a new MathCityMap partner school. After the school’s teachers participated in a MathCityMap training in 2024, the school has now officially published its first two trails:

The feedback from the students has been very positive. Designed as small outdoor learning activities, the trails offer a welcome change from regular classroom lessons. The spacious area in front of the school and the nearby river provide a pleasant outdoor learning environment.

The trails were carried out with two fourth-year classes from the technical school for computer science as well as a basic vocational class. Equipped with the necessary tools, the groups were able to work independently, with occasional input from the teachers when needed. One important takeaway: a short briefing in the classroom makes the on-site activities run much more smoothly.

Thanks to the frequent double lessons, the trails with their seven tasks can easily be completed within one teaching unit – including travel time there and back.

We thank the Landesberufsschule für Handwerk und Industrie Bozen for their commitment and warmly welcome them to the MathCityMap community!

The package with the official partner school badge and the MCM measuring instruments is on its way and we are looking forward to receiving more applications from all over the world.

All further information on the partner school programme and the requirements for application can be found both in the article on the first MCM partner school and on the homepage of our MaSCE³ project.


On Thursday, December 4th, our third MathCityMap Partner School Meeting took place – once again a very enriching exchange on the use of MathCityMap in the classroom.

This time, the focus was on our new feature, the student accounts. With them, students can independently create their own MCM tasks and thus further develop their problem-solving and problem-posing skills. After an overview of other recent MCM updates and a short introduction, there was a hands-on phase during which participants could try out the new feature directly.

The meeting was attended by part of the MCM team, several project partners, and numerous teachers from Slovakia, Portugal, Spain, Germany, and Italy. Participants took the opportunity to ask many questions. We were particularly pleased with the positive feedback and the valuable suggestions for improvement, which will now be incorporated into the further development of the system.

At the end of the online meeting, we took a group photo to capture this successful event.

We would like to thank all participants and are already looking forward to the next meeting!

On the weekend of September 19–21, there was a festive atmosphere on Frankfurt’s Opernplatz: the Polytechnic Society Foundation celebrated its 20th anniversary—and MathCityMap was there!

It was a special honor for us to be part of these celebrations. The foundation recognized the potential of MathCityMap early on and provided us with active support, especially in the early days. We were therefore all the more delighted to be there with our team.

At our booth, we were able to introduce MathCityMap to numerous visitors – from people who happened to be passing by to math enthusiasts to representatives of other projects. Many were interested and enthusiastic about the idea of learning math outdoors.

Away from our booth, the anniversary celebration also offered a diverse and exciting program: numerous initiatives and projects presented themselves and ensured a varied weekend full of exchange, discoveries, and inspiration.

We would like to thank the Polytechnic Society Foundation for the invitation and support. It was a pleasure to be part of this special celebration!

On Friday, June 13, 2025, Frankfurt’s Riedberg Campus once again became a hotspot for science: the Night of Science opened its doors from 5 p.m. until late into the night – and our MathCityMap team was right in the middle of it all with an interactive stand.

Our outdoor location offered the best conditions for our special hands-on offer: the “Night of Science 25” trail. Equipped with measuring materials, a clipboard and the MathCityMap app, many curious guests embarked on a mathematical discovery tour of the campus. The aim was to solve up to 12 tasks – and to look at everyday places such as stairs, benches or building facades through a mathematical lens.

We were delighted with the consistently positive feedback we received – both from those interested in mathematics and from guests who would not describe themselves as fans of maths.

We would like to thank all visitors for the exciting conversations, the interest and the great interaction. Special thanks also go to the Night of Science organization team for making this unique event possible.

See you next year – we are already looking forward to the Night of Science 2026!

L’application MathCityMap permet aux utilisateurs de tous âges d’ouvrir un œil scientifique sur le monde autour d’eux, de voir ce qu’il y a d’intéressant dans des objets de la cour d’école, du parc de la ville et partout où leurs compétences mathématiques trouveront à s’appliquer! Dans MathCityMap, les élèves utilisent les outils appris en classe hors la classe et découvrent leur environnement dans une perspective mathématique.

L’application MathCityMap est gratuite, disponible pour téléphones et tablettes, Android et iOS. Voici une vidéo qui va vous expliquer comment ça marche.

Nous vous souhaitons beaucoup de plaisir et de succès avec MathCityMap!
