The investigation of reasons and motivations for increasing this perception of relevance and the identification of successful strategies is the aim our research project. In the course of the QUEST project, initial strategies and their effect are to be investigated using the Fundamentals of Numerics course with the help of new tasks and application examples. In particular, the relevance of the course for the future profession for Mathematics B. Ed. and B.Sc. will be addressed.     <\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-accordionitem>\n\n<jgu-base-accordionitem react-props=\"{&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Role of the students&quot;,&quot;init&quot;:false,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;rolle-der-studierenden&quot;,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;wide&quot;,&quot;customSlug&quot;:false}\">\n    \n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The task is to carry out and analyze an evaluation of the perceived relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-accordionitem>\n\n<jgu-base-accordionitem react-props=\"{&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Necessary qualifications&quot;,&quot;init&quot;:false,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;notwendige-qualifikationen&quot;,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;wide&quot;,&quot;customSlug&quot;:false}\">\n    \n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Programming skills are helpful, but not essential.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-accordionitem>\n\n<\/jgu-base-accordion>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><jgu-base-button style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; column-gap: 30px; max-width: 100%; flex-direction: row; justify-content: left\">\n  \n<jgu-base-buttonitem react-props=\"{\n    &quot;text&quot;: &quot;View all projects&quot;,\n    &quot;link&quot;: {\n        &quot;url&quot;: &quot;https:\\\/\\\/cms.zdv.uni-mainz.de\\\/ze-quest\\\/en\\\/alle-projekte\\\/&quot;,\n        &quot;linkTarget&quot;: &quot;&quot;,\n        &quot;rel&quot;: &quot;&quot;,\n        &quot;id&quot;: 10218,\n        &quot;title&quot;: &quot;Projects&quot;,\n        &quot;type&quot;: &quot;page&quot;,\n        &quot;kind&quot;: &quot;post-type&quot;\n    },\n    &quot;align&quot;: &quot;left&quot;,\n    &quot;styling&quot;: &quot;primary&quot;,\n    &quot;icon&quot;: &quot;arrow-right-solid&quot;,\n    &quot;type&quot;: &quot;default&quot;,\n    &quot;iconBefore&quot;: false,\n    &quot;isSmall&quot;: false,\n    &quot;fullWidth&quot;: false,\n    &quot;className&quot;: &quot;&quot;\n}\"><\/jgu-base-buttonitem>\n\n<\/jgu-base-button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <div style=\"display: none\">\n        \n    <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slots: 1 Completion within: 9 months Hours per week: 3 h Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Hendrik Ranocha Location: Campus Mainz Primary language: German Degree programs: Mathematics B.Sc., Mathematics B.Ed., Mathematics-Informatics B.Sc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1320,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10810","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-allgemein"],"primary_category":{"id":1,"name":"Allgemein","slug":"allgemein","parent":0,"breadcrumb":"Allgemein"},"media":{},"image":{"url":false,"credit":false},"index":"01.05.2025","assigned_date":"","external_link":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1320"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10810"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10810\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12613,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10810\/revisions\/12613"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quest.uni-mainz.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
