Interest: They directly benefit from tools that reduce stress and improve learning in mathematics.
Stakeholders
Key stakeholder groups
MathifyMe brings together a broad network of learners, educators, institutions, families, and policy actors who each influence how maths anxiety is understood and addressed in practice. Identifying these groups clearly helps the project communicate its value in a more focused and effective way.
This overview shows who the project speaks to, why each audience matters, and how different stakeholder groups support adoption, classroom implementation, long-term sustainability, and wider educational impact.
- Primary and Middle School Students: central focus and direct end-users of the MathifyMe digital game.
- Mathematics Teachers: key facilitators in classrooms and participants in the TPD programme.
- Schools, Teacher Training Colleges, and Universities: institutional adopters of the MathifyMe game and training resources.
- Parents and Guardians: indirect stakeholders invested in improved academic performance and reduced stress.
- Consortium Partners: co-creators and implementers of MathifyMe tools and activities.
- Policy Makers and Regional Education Authorities: decision-makers interested in systemic adoption of MathifyMe outputs.
- NGOs, Researchers, and EdTech Companies: external amplifiers that can scale, validate, and extend project impact.
