Mathematics Education in India: Helping Children Find Joy in Numbers

Over the last few years, concerns surrounding mathematics education have come to occupy centre stage in the educational discourse of the country. In this context, this month’s webinar focuses on this very important topic. The panellists will discuss the current state of mathematics education at the school level in India, related pedagogic aspects, ways of addressing challenges of intervening in math classrooms, and possible productive approaches for organizations intervening in foundational numeracy, amongst other related issues. This session will benefit education NGOs, especially those working in the areas of foundational numeracy and mathematics education. It will also be of interest to teachers and parents who want to understand ways of approaching the teaching and learning of mathematics.
