About the Conference

Mathematics is a methodical application of matter. It is thus said because the subject makes a man methodical or systematic. Mathematics makes our life orderly and prevents chaos. The important qualities that are nurtured by mathematics are, power of measuring, reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking, exploring, critical thinking, problem solving ability and even the effective communication skills. At present the main challenges faced by the school education are regarding the development of inclusion schools and healthy mind set for removal of psychological barrier related to mathematics among the learners. These also includes the effective pre-service and in-service training of teachers for developing a constructivists approach in the mathematics education. To make the best of it, there should be a shift in the focus from mathematical content to mathematical learning environment. Engaging every student with the sense of success, while at the same time offering conceptual challenges to the emerging mathematician and changing modes of assessment to examine the student’s mathematical abilities rather than procedural knowledge to modify the learning of students are also challenges faced by mathematics education today. Enriching teachers with a variety of mathematical resources enhance the quality of mathematics education.

The main purpose of the conference is to improve the teaching learning process of Mathematics. This conference will pave the way to find implications of history of mathematics, particularly the contributions of Indians and recent developments, including pedagogical practices used to enhance the teaching learning process of mathematics. The broad theme of the seminar “Mathematics Education”, is intended to focus on the innovative pedagogical practices experimented and found useful in teaching of mathematics at different levels and to connect different aspects of the mathematics education such as inclusive mathematics classroom, school mathematics curriculum, assessment, use of ICT and other resources and linking mathematics with everyday life and other disciplines. In this context the Mathematicians, Educationists, Teacher Educators, Research Scholars, Academicians and Teachers are invited to share their thoughts, experiences, researches in the National Seminar which is being organised by RIE Ajmer to observe the National Mathematics Day to mark the birth anniversary of legendary Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan.
