This is natural because such students form a majority in schools. Special care is usually assigned to lower ability students so that they could cover the educational standards. Less attention is paid however to students with higher than average abilities in mathematics. The standard curriculum and syllabus requirements are no challenge for these students. As a result, a lot of mathematical abilities (and even mathematical talents) remain undiscovered and undeveloped. On the other hand, the higher ability individuals provide a critical resource for the development of the society, if they are properly educated, motivated to work and supported. With this in mind a project named MATHEU was started aimed at developing tools for identification, motivation and support of students with higher ability (and perhaps talent) in mathematics. The project has been carried out with the ...

The tasks are classified according to the type of their answers. The GeoGebra help-files accompanying some of the tasks are discussed as tools for simultaneous development of students‘ digital and mathematical competence. An analysis of the results of the competition, held on April 25, 2020, is presented.
