  1. Mathematics Demystified A Workshop on Universal Active Math

  2. Learning Math understanding OR Learning math by understanding NOT BY ROTE

  3. At W. W. Sawyer Memorial, Pune W. W. Sawyer : ‘The best way to learn geometry is to follow the road which the human race originally followed:....

  4. Do things, make things, notice things, arrange things, and only then reason about things.’ This applies to all mathematics learning.

  5. Universal Active Math Pedagogy Learning by Understanding, in fact, Learning only by Understanding The Chinese Proverb : I hear, I forget; I see, I remember; I do, I understand.

  6. ‘To master anything from football to relativity requires effort. But it does not require unpleasant efforts, drudgery. The main task of any teacher is to make a subject interesting.’ W.W. Sawyer

  7. ‘In discovering something for ourselves, we have a sense of freedom and conquest. In memorizing something that another person tells us and that we do not understand, we are slaves.’ W. W. Sawyer

  8. Universal Active Math (UAM) is Joyful Learning Children solve a problem in things-language and then translate their understanding into alphanumeric language. This method builds their confidence.

  9. UAM is Creativity. Children discover patterns and relations between shape, size and number.

  10. Specially Designed Self Learning Materials

  11. Expected outcome of this workshop ‘Complete success would mean that every individual felt, “I enjoyed the mathematics that I had time to learn. If I ever need or want to learn some more, I shall not be afraid to do so.”’ W. W. Sawyer

  12. NavnirmitiQuality for Equality Navnirmiti is a Self- Reliant Organization (SRO) Working to Promote - Universalization of Quality Education - Employment - Cooperation - Science for All - A Scientific, Secular Culture
