Our goal is to provide learning spaces and opportunities which support modern, human centred learning. The REVEAL group has called its approach “Competence Oriented Learning and Validation”.

We put a special focus on learning in informal contexts, be it at the workplace, in volunteering, in civic and sustainable development and capacity building.

We have been active in research and development of innovative teaching and learning approaches and work for the professionalisation of people who educate and train others.

Learning technologies are increasingly suitable tools to support this modern way of learning and competence development.

However, they need high quality teaching approaches to compile learning settings and didactics that are attractive and effective (COL). At the same time they also need a professional validation to give evidence of the competence developments.

Based on these considerations we have created Mathetics. It serves as a platform for tools and instruments which support innovative, blended learning solutions for competence oriented learning and validation.
