Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia attended the State-level mental maths quiz competition 2022-23 at Dr. BR Ambedkar School of Specialized Excellence, Rohini 11. The aim of such competition is to develop mathematical and logical skills among students and make them prompt, confident and mentally agile.
Sisodia interacted with the students and motivated them to participate in such competitions more and more. Along with the quiz competition, a TLM (Teaching Learning Material) exhibition was also organized that showcased various educational models made by the Delhi government school teachers.
Addressing and motivating the students, Sisodia said, he was amazed to see the mathematical and logical skills of the students of Delhi Government schools. This quiz competition hosted by the Directorate of Education is a very innovative step in the right direction to inculcate the habit of doing calculations in the head, without the use of any tools.
This will make students more prompt, confident and mentally agile. Today, the performance of our students in the mental maths competition shows that students of Delhi government schools are now less than anyone.â€
The Deputy Chief Minister said that Mathematics is equally enjoyable as any other subject like English, Hindi, and History and activities like these quiz competitions make it more fun.
“Students often consider it as a scary subject but I can see that there are many people who enjoy it too. Such a fun filled environment to learn mathematics in a government school was unimaginable earlier but our students and teachers have made it a reality now,†said Sisodia.
