    EU project number 2017-1-ES01-KA204-038478 Adults in Europe have difficulties in the three areas identified as core competences by the European Commission: literacy, mathematical competence and digital competence. For example, in Europe, one in five 15 year-olds and one in five 16-65 year-olds have poor reading skills; and around 55 million adults between 15 and 65 years of age have literacy difficulties (ELINET, 2015). Regarding mathematical competences, the 2013 OECD Survey on Adult Competencies (PIAAC) found that 24% of European adults scored at (or below) level one in a scale of five. The data are not better if we focus on digital skills. According to the data of the Digital Indicators Table, 80 million Europeans have never used the Internet, and according to the most recent data published by the European Commission on the Digital Economy and Society Index (2017), 44% of Europeans do not have basic digital skills. The need to promote innovation in the development of adult education, adapting the teaching-learning process to the changes in society, mainly through the use of active and cooperative methodologies, diversified evaluation instruments and integrated Information and Communications. Technologies (ICT), brings us to propose this project, which will design and develop a web application. OBJECTIVES • Improve creativity, solve real problems in different contexts and develop students´ ability to create new problems, ask questions and share relevant ideas. • Improve the attitude of the group of adults towards mathematics education, improve their literacy skills and promote their digital skills, increasing their interest, motivation, flexibility and perseverance in lifelong learning, correcting negative attitudes traditionally linked to study, such as lack of confidence, self-esteem or anxiety. • Prepare adults for continuous and autonomous learning, developing in them critical thinking, and promoting equity, social cohesion and active citizenship. • Promote professional trainers of adults´ development of basic skills, providing them with a new tool for adult learning in informal contexts.

    Adults in Europe have difficulties in the three areas


    identified as core competences by the European
    Commission: literacy, mathematical competence
    and digital competence. For example, in Europe,
    one in five 15 year-olds and one in five 16-65 year-
    olds have poor reading skills; and around 55 million
    adults between 15 and 65 years of age have literacy
    difficulties (ELINET, 2015). Regarding mathematical
    competences, the 2013 OECD Survey on Adult
    Competencies (PIAAC) found that 24% of European
    adults scored at (or below) level one in a scale of
    five. The data are not better if we focus on digital
    skills. According to the data of the Digital Indicators
    Table, 80 million Europeans have never used the
    Internet, and according to the most recent data
    published by the European Commission on the Digital
    Economy and Society Index (2017), 44% of Europeans
    do not have basic digital skills.

    The need to promote innovation in


    the development of adult education,
    adapting the teaching-learning process
    to the changes in society, mainly through
    the use of active and cooperative
    methodologies, diversified evaluation
    instruments and integrated Information
    and Communications. Technologies (ICT),
    brings us to propose this project, which will
    design and develop a web application.
