Mathematics is a key requirement for entry to higher education and the knowledge intensive workplace of the 21st century. The world has a pressing need to increase the number of well-educated graduates in science, technology, engineering and maths. But in countries like South Africa, fewer and fewer students are taking Mathematics as a subject all the way to the end of high school.
One of the biggest reasons is the negative experiences that go along with learning mathematics. At critical junctures (such as Grade 9) students suffer from bad experiences, and decide mathematics is not for them. In some cases, teachers are glad to have fewer or no students in maths classes, because the subject can be so difficult to teach.
Geomax, and other forthcoming Papadi Games provide a way for for these critical learning experiences to be fun, positive boosts to childrens self esteem and motivation.
