Summary/Abstract: The PLATINUM project is a joint effort to develop an approach for teaching and learning mathematics at university level that will improve the balance between procedural and conceptual learning of mathematics and build a community of inquiry that will disseminate this approach across European universities. It promotes inquiry-based practices while encouraging collaboration across regional, European and international institutions. This chapter focuses on one of the main intellectual outputs on the project: \Guidelines and recommendations for quality assessment in Inquiry Based Learning environment" (IO6). One of the main goals of the project is not only to provide lecturers with the tools to implement inquiry-based practice, but to offer practical guidelines that enable them to independently monitor their progress in mastering Inquiry-Based Mathematics Education (IBME) methods and students' engagement with more efficient learning approaches (see Guideline Document available on the PLATINUM website).
