Within the REMEDIATE project, educational materials are developed as part of an integrated training and research process that combines reflection, creativity, and technology.

Digital Stories (DSTs)

At the core of the project lies the creation of Digital Stories by pre-service primary school teachers. Each story represents a personal narrative of the creator’s emotional and cognitive relationship with mathematics.
Through digital media (video, sound, image, text), participants express experiences of learning and teaching mathematics, highlighting both challenges and moments of transformation.
These stories serve as:

  • learning artefacts for self-reflection and affective awareness,

  • pedagogical tools for inclusive teaching practices, and

  • research data for understanding the affective dimensions of mathematics education.

Reflective Activities

The programme integrates individual and collective reflection, supporting participants in exploring their relationship with mathematics at multiple levels.

  • Individual reflection includes personal diaries and creator’s reports.

  • Collective reflection takes place in workshops where participants share and discuss their stories, building a community of practice.

Training Framework and Tools

The educational material of REMEDIATE is structured into five interrelated components, each corresponding to a pedagogical and research aim:

  1. Mapping affective relationships with mathematics through questionnaires.

  2. Creating digital stories that communicate lived mathematical experiences.

  3. Maintaining reflective logs during story creation.

  4. Participating in reflective co-laboratories for story sharing and discussion.

  5. Engaging in technologically mediated reflection, using platforms such as e-class, Webex, REDCap, and ATLAS.ti.

Resources and Accessibility

All materials and activities are designed to be open, inclusive, and adaptable for teacher training contexts. They aim to foster reflective, creative, and socially aware teachers, capable of integrating digital storytelling into their own future classrooms.
