| Popis | Mathematics and Statistics Support Centre at Masaryk University in Brno started in the February 2016. It provides assistance in various topics of mathematics and statistics, primarily to the students of Faculty of Economics and Administration. In the paper we present reasons and pedagogical ideas for opening such centre, together with a brief report of the activities during the spring term 2016 and students’ feedback. Furthermore, experience and challenges from the first period of running and organizing MSSC are discussed. The evaluation of the impact of the innovation on study outcomes shows an increase of the success rate in relevant courses. |
