SULAM - Semester 1, 2022/2023 (Details 5)

Summary : 

This project is part of the SIM2007 Appreciation of Mathematics course requirement. The project was called Maths Race. It took place on 7th of January 2023, starting at 8.30 p.m. and ending at 11.40 p.m. This project is conducted online via Microsoft Teams. The project included nine students from the Institute of Mathematical Sciences in their second year during the session 2022–2023, as well as fifteen students from the University of Malaya Foundation Centre. This project is a platform to raise awareness about the value of mathematics in everyday life. It also teaches us by putting what we've learned in SIM2007 Appreciation of Mathematics into practice with the project. The Maths Race is an exploration race consisting of four checkpoints. Each checkpoint provides a different set of activities. Sudoku, the bridge riddle, the penniless pilgrim riddle, and other activities are chosen. Furthermore, our tentative, photos, and budget sections demonstrate our group's planning for the Maths Race project, starting with the activities chosen and ending with participants receiving prizes.

Objective : 

1. To apply concepts and theories learnt in real life activities.
2. To increase students' awareness of the importance of basic Mathematics.
3. To give intellectual enjoyment, satisfaction and an opportunity for creative expression while learning mathematics.
