Funding

The HALMA project is one of 119 projects funded by the Foundation for Innovation in Higher Education under the “Teaching Architecture” funding program. The project is initially scheduled to run for four years, beginning on October 1, 2025.

Project Structure

HALMA is a collaborative project involving the University of Kassel, the University of Paderborn, and Leibniz University Hannover. The project coordinators—Prof. Dr. Andreas Eichler (Kassel), Prof. Dr. Sebastian Rezat (Paderborn), and Prof. Dr. Reinhard Hochmuth (Hanover)—oversee the cross-campus collaboration and facilitate communication among the participating partners. The project work follows an agile and evidence-based approach that involves all individuals from the mathematics department and the participating academic departments who are involved in the teaching and learning process.

HALMA and the Center of Excellence for University Mathematics Education (khdm)

The khdm is a joint research institution of the Universities of Hannover, Kassel, and Paderborn that has been active in the field of university mathematics education since 2010. Halma is a project of the three universities. The khdm serves as the operational structure that coordinates and implements the Halma project.
