Dear MathCityMap Community,
At the end of the year, we would like to look back together with you on an eventful and successful MathCityMap year 2025.
A particularly exciting milestone: the MathCityMap community has once again grown significantly. Around 56,000 users are now using MathCityMap – as in the previous year, this is an increase of about 16,000 compared to the year before. We are very happy about this continuous growth. There has also been a lot of development in terms of content. The number of created tasks has risen to 122,000 – at this time last year, it was still just under 100,000.
2025 was also characterized by numerous workshops and teacher training sessions related to MathCityMap. Many of these were organized by our dedicated partners. In addition, we were present with MathCityMap booths at various events, where we were able to engage directly with teachers, learners, and interested participants.
As part of our Erasmus+ project MATRIX (Math Trails with an Inclusive Perspective on Students Experiences), we were able to implement important new features this year. The read-aloud function and the translation function help to make MathCityMap even more inclusive and to facilitate access for as many learners as possible. With our Content Gallery, we now have a place where we can collect high-quality and diverse public tasks, serving as inspiration for everyone who wants to create new tasks.
Our network continues to grow as well: we were able to gain several new partner schools again and are now working with almost 80 partner schools. This close collaboration is a central building block for the further development of MathCityMap and for the exchange of ideas and experiences from practice.
We are very happy about these impressive developments and the great cooperation with our partner schools as well as our engaged community. Thank you for your interest, your ideas, and your enthusiasm in discovering mathematics in new ways together with us and passing this on. Together, we open up a different perspective on mathematics for many learners and create positive change step by step. Without our amazing users, none of this would be possible – for that, we say from the bottom of our hearts: thank you!
At the end of the year, we wish you and your families happy holidays, a merry Christmas, and a great start to the new year 2026. We are already looking forward to discovering exciting and creative MathCityMap tasks together with you and many new members around the world in the coming year.
Your MathCityMap Team
