Gate2Math project nears completion, Smart Library of Open Educational Resources continues to grow

The Gate2Math project, an Erasmus+ initiative dedicated to improving mathematics education through the development of a multilingual Smart Library of Open Educational Resources (OERs), is entering its final phase. The project will officially conclude on August 31, 2025, marking the end of nearly three years of collaboration across Europe.

As we move into the final months of project, we are proud to share the progress and impact achieved since its launch. Supported by the Erasmus+ programme, Gate2Math has developed a multilingual Smart Library of Open Educational Resources (OERs), designed to support math educators and learners at secondary, vocational, and higher education levels.

The Smart Library now offers a wide array of resources contributed by partners and educators across Europe. These materials promote accessible, inclusive, and effective teaching practices, and the platform continues to evolve with new content and improvements.

Throughout the project, the Gate2Math team has hosted international seminars, engaged with teachers and institutions, and worked to ensure that the resources are both pedagogically sound and practically useful. The library has already begun to foster a growing community of educators who share a passion for open knowledge and collaboration in mathematics education.

While the project will officially conclude this August, the Gate2Math platform will remain accessible, and we hope it continues to grow through community involvement. New contributors are always welcome to enrich the library with their expertise, and we encourage anyone interested in math education to explore the resources and join the discussion.

To stay connected and be part of our community, follow us on LinkedIn.

Together, we are building a lasting resource for educators across Europe and beyond.
