Notwithstanding the poetry and the beauty, a functional knowledge of mathematics and computing is an essential skill for transacting in society. However, to appreciate the poetry of this language or to transact, one must learn the grammar and acquire the vocabulary. And school mathematics is largely about acquiring the skills to communicate and develop the love for the language. This portal is for students and teachers to engage with this language and build those skills. |
