“Maths in Wonderl@nd” is an eTwinning project developed by two groups of 13-15 years old students from Italy and Romania. The working language is English. We have planned the project mainly during the Global Junior Challenge finals in Rome, where teachers and some of the Italian students were present. We want to show that Maths can be more than a class in the timetable, it can be a world of imagination and creativity, populated by interesting and peculiar things, just like Lewis Carroll's book "Alice in Wonderland" is. Its starting point are the mathematical allusions in the book, but the activities go beyond that, by searching for other unusual Mathematical notions, that can even be recognized in our every-day environment, using the mathematical notions we get in class. Another project aim is to promote team work, collaboration and mutual understanding, as some of the main values of young European citizens.   The @ in the project title means that this Wonderland is also a world of ICT, of new  teaching and learning tools. We used an on-line magazine (http://magazinefactory.edu.fi/magazines/mathsinwonderland/?str=40), a blog (http://mathsinwonderland.blogspot.com/), a loudblog that can be found at http://irina.sorinvasilescu.ro/loudblog/, videos, Google Maps, animations, Voki, podcasts and other web 2.0 tools. The methodological approaches were web-based learning, games, peer and informal education, collaborative learning. Our TwinSpace is athttp://new-twinspace.etwinning.net/web/p20278/welcome (The TwinSpace is a collaborative environment for teachers and pupils)  

The project aims at developing students' logical and mathematical thinking. Through texts on famous mathematicians, we will ask our students to invent problems, based on the theory presented or draw the theory, as they perceive it in a comic form. The problems will be exchanged, so that students will try to find the solution, while drawings will be presented in a comic form. Additionally, quizzes and games will also be developed.
