Methods of Integrating Computational Skills Training with Daily Math Classes: 1. Utilizing Everyday Life Situations: Allow students to experience mathematics in their daily lives. For example, during a visit to the store, ask them to calculate the final bill for purchases or determine the percentage discount on a product. Research by Smith (2019) has shown that such practical applications of mathematics significantly increase student engagement. Example: Ask students to develop a shopping plan for a birthday party, considering the budget and guest list. Another example could be calculating the time needed to reach school, taking into account different means of transportation. 2. Using Math Games and Activities: Interactive board games, math quizzes, and educational apps are excellent tools for integrating computational skills training with daily math classes. Research by Lee et al. (2017) has demonstrated that students are more willing to participate in such activities when they have a gamified aspect. Example: Develop a math board game that engages students in solving various math problems, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. 3. Technology in Mathematics Education: In addition to Photomath and Khan Academy, there are many other apps and educational platforms that support math learning through interactive lessons and exercises. One example is "Mathletics," an educational platform offering sets of math tasks tailored to different levels of proficiency. Example: Suggest that students use the "Mathletics" app to solve daily math tasks, such as quizzes, puzzles, and online competitions. Another alternative could be the "IXL Math" platform, which offers personalized math exercises. Integrating computational skills training with daily math classes is a key element of effective math teaching. Scientific research confirms that practical application of mathematics in daily life enhances both understanding and motivation among students. By employing various methods, such as utilizing everyday life situations, math games and activities, and technology in education, computational skills training can be effectively integrated with daily math classes. 1.

New Post: Vaasavi school student’s projects - https://lnkd.in/eS5nsCYy - https://lnkd.in/eS5nsCYy - - -Ilkaya(Mathegramming Team) The Mathegramming team's partnership with Vaasavi school children resulted in a series of interactive and innovative Scratch mathematical projects, which enriched the learning experience and logical thinking of the children. The work started on September 12, 2023 to February 15, 2024 for the 7th graders. Scratch was introduced to the students in the way of making games, drawing shapes and asking questions which induced their creativity, thinking and the sense of building. After that it was moved to math concepts like Fractions, integers, decimal multiplication, algebra and simple interest with visualization. Each concept was visualized in a specific way that students could learn the concepts well and explore in a creative way. Since it takes time work on the math project from scratch, we made some core modules for each topic that they could build on and make their own projects. A scratch account was created for each four classes. Then, students logged in with their class account and used the modules to create the projects with our help. Shifts: 1. Transforming students from rote learning to visual learning of mathematical concepts that fosters curiosity, innovation and lifelong learning 2. Not challenging students to challenging the students with creative tasks to make their learning more interesting. 3. Low confidence in bringing out confidence in every student. 4. From no access to programming to access to programming platforms integrated with mathematics and making a space where students can be at their full potential. Fractions were visualized using the circles. When the module was given to the students, they were asked to explore it and do what fun things they can do with it before going into the concept of fraction. Here are some of the projects children made with the module on drawing a fraction as a circle https://lnkd.in/eDGEWWuC https://lnkd.in/emSu7ZEt https://lnkd.in/ewpWnThe https://lnkd.in/ezV-tiaS Decimal Multiplication was done using the area of the rectangle concept. Since, the module for this is easy to make instead of using the old module. Students learned to create their own module with the help of the team. First, they observed the blocks and found the pattern and the variables to make their own blocks. https://lnkd.in/eNbuZBfu Integers were taken using two colored tokens one color for positive integers and other for negative integers. In scratch, there is a student-teacher account facility available. With a teacher account, the  teacher can enroll many students to their class and create separate accounts for each student. The teacher can also post

{ Intrinsic motivation, math and the opportunity of education } 15 year old Archisman Das shares his perspectives on learning, school, education and - the infinity. 🔹Today’s guest is one of the learners, students we met on our path as learner guides of international education. 🔹The one thing that stood out with him already as a 9 year old was his brilliant math and coding skills. 🔹In this episode we have a conversation with him about intrinsic motivation and what impact it has in a young person’s life! 🔹We unbox what was driving him in the early years when it came to math and coding, and what is driving him now. 🔹We were curious about what motivates Archisman to come to Hetch ( Helsingborg Tech Hub ) on an afternoon after school! 🔹We discuss innovation and how age doesn’t matter! 🔹We were eager to know Archisman’s answer to the question: If you could design a school, what would we find? How would content and skills be taught and learnt? Check out our conversation with Archisman Das, a 15 year old student. His own words: 🔆My name is Archi and I'm currently 15 years old, and I am a student in the 9th grade at the International School of Helsingborg. I personally enjoy mathematics, computer science, and STEM in general due to the opportunities it offers us, and the way it forms everything in the world. I like to experiment and try out new things in these fields and in general, and am completely self-taught for nearly everything I do. I'm very interested in being able to learn things fast and learn new things, as I see not being able to understand something as a challenge for me. I started going deeper into STEM because of my sudden interest, which only happened about a year ago, but I always had a passion for it. In this episode, I talked a bit about my perspective on mathematics and the ways in which we see it vs the other ways there is to see it, why I became so interested in these kinds of things, and what I believe education should be like today.

Delivering a unique 4in1 educational technology package for Secondary Schools. Once again our special all-day technology package for secondary schools at the Insight Research Ireland Centre for Data Analytics of the Data Science Institute at the University of Galway has proved popular with secondary schools during the Galway Science and Technology Festival (& indeed throughout the year). St Jarlath’s College from Tuam booked two days for a package during the festival which offers a 'Virtual Reality in the Classroom Experience', a Python Coding workshop, and a guided 'hands-on' tour of Ireland's only Computer and Communication Museum. But this time, instead of our standard ‘Research Talks’, we offered as an alternative an interactiive workshop led by senior researcher Georgios Petropoulos looking at behavioral tendencies within a machine learning training model. Under the supervision of their fantastic teacher John Duggan, St. Jarlath’s College Transition Year students have been coming to our institute since 2014!  So we must be doing something right! So a big thank you ('Bualadh Bos'!) to all my fellow Insight colleagues who mentored or provided support for this month’s series of school visits, namely Gerard Conneely, Georgios Petropoulos, Kasia Stasiewicz, Tunde Ajayi, Carlos Tighe, Bardia Khorsand, Muhammad Asif Razzaq, Ph.D., Duc-Duy Nguyen, Janakkumar Kapuriya, Abdul Wahid, Luke Porwol, Al Waskow, Simon Simanta, Vinoop Sanil and Michela Dianetti.
