CERN School of Computing held for the first time in Belgrade
Mathematics in the Computer Multimedia program at ITS is no longer intimidating, but it has become a real challenge starting this academic year. For the first time at a higher education institution here, students construct knowledge and enhance their thought processes by solving problems on their own. This exciting journey begins with logic-detective puzzles, igniting their logic and pushing them to think outside the box. They work in teams with subtle positive competitiveness in a relaxed atmosphere. As time passes, they require more mathematical knowledge to solve a problem. Artificial intelligence and team discussions come to their aid, and of course, the teacher, whom they don’t like to ask for help too much because any assistance diminishes their credit for successfully solving the problem.
They delve deeper into research waters and acquire new knowledge. Students who are not expected to be overly interested in mathematics due to the nature of their study program simply rush to attend classes in this subject, primarily to have fun with their peers and also to pick up some knowledge to brag about when they leave the ITS building to meet their friends from other faculties. When it’s time to step into the job market, the skills they acquire in this way – problem-solving, teamwork, critical thinking, creative thinking, communication, data handling, cognitive flexibility, negotiation skills, and decision-making – will become their great advantage.
See for yourself. Is this a typical math class?
