The research within UMERC is applied science in the sense that it aims directly or indirectly to support the development of learning, teaching, teaching materials, tests and curriculum. That is why UMERC collaborates with several schools. In this way, UMERC will have the opportunity to conduct research with high ecological validity, and the schools will have the opportunity to develop their activities based on research.
Researchers and research groups within UMERC have experience of collaboration with several different actors in the surrounding society: teachers, school principals, the National Centre for Mathematics Education, the Swedish National Agency for Education and the Swedish Schools Inspectorate. UMERC has ongoing collaboration with several schools within our region.
If you are interested in collaborating with UMERC in any way, see the page about contacting UMERC.
