Welcome to Akshara Foundation’s Pratibimba Podcast. In this episode, we delve into the Gram Panchayat Level Mathematics Contest (GP Contests), held across Karnataka, for students of classes 4 to 6. The primary aim is to elevate the quality of maths education in the state. Our guest today is Mr. Shankar Hadagali, an educator at the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET) in Gadag, and Nodal Officer for Akshara Foundation’s Ganitha Kalika Andolan (GKA).
DIET and Akshara Foundation collaborated to provide GKA Maths Kits, simplifying maths concepts and making the subject more engaging. Teachers are encouraged to innovate their teaching methods to foster a love for maths in young learners.
GP Contests have successfully introduced healthy competition among students, offering a refreshing break from the routine of regular classes. Education Volunteers educate school Headmasters about the significance of these contests and identify dedicated educational volunteers who facilitate the contests and create a comfortable environment for students.
The overarching goal of GP Contests is to make maths accessible and enjoyable, dispelling fears that students may have about the subject. These contests also empower parents to gauge their child's comprehension levels. By tracking monthly progress, we can plan targeted support for each child.
Mr. Shankar believes that by involving more individuals and reaching out to more schools, we can have a profound and lasting impact on these children's futures, instilling a lasting love for maths that will serve them well throughout their lives. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of these young learners.
