Technology-based Interdisciplinary Approaches to Accelerated Learning of Mathematics

As technology enters everyday life more quickly and purposefully, the education system is also becoming more accessible and efficient. In 2020, during distance learning in Latvia general education schools, based on a survey of the Latvian Ministry of Education and Science, 18 main problems were identified that most directly relate to learning mathematics and require a change in teaching strategies and approaches. These problems raised much debate and led to think about the need for a more efficient education system in the future, where close cross-sectoral cooperation with an interdisciplinary approach can make a new contribution. The research question is: What interdisciplinary digital technology-based approaches stimulate students' interest in learning maths, motivate them and improve attitudes in the long term? The aim of the study is to point out to educators, policy makers, industry entrepreneurs and researchers the necessity for collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches for accelerated learning in mathematics in general schools. In the future this will contribute to the development of AI solutions and a quality support system for mathematics teachers. The study identifies and describes eight technology-based interdisciplinary approaches to accelerated learning of mathematics that can make mathematics a more accessible and meaningful subject.
