Résumé

Interest and self-efficacy are seen as important requirements for students’ performance. Two approaches that can promote students’ affective attitudes towards mathematics are mobile learning as well as outdoor learning. The latter one can be realised in mathematics education by so-called math trails, which connect math tasks to real outdoor objects. Math trails can be enriched by mobile applications, such as the MathCityMap app. In a quantitative study (N = 257), we compare math trails with or without digital support regarding students’ interest, self-efficacy, and performance. The results show that the use of the mobile app has no influence on students’ interest and self-efficacy. Nevertheless, it is beneficial since it leads to a significant increase in the number of tasks solved, while the number of tasks processed is comparable. As the analysis of the app usage shows, this result can be attributed to the valuable support of the app in form of hints and immediate answer validation.
