Abstract
The innovative MAT 789 Project is developing a new ‘non-official’ mathematics curriculum for grades 7–9 ‘pupils aged 12–15’. From 1988 to 1992, four experimental classes in the area of Lisbon, Portugal, are involved. The Project Team has five members, three teachers and two researchers, and includes the authors of the present paper. The Project is independent, but is authorized by the Ministry of Education and supported by the University of Lisbon and other institutions.
