Group Discussion on Importance of Mathematics
| Teacher | Good morning students! We have just learnt the life of the great mathematician Ramanujan. Now let’s have a group discussion on “Importance of Mathematics in Our Everyday Life”. Divide yourselves into groups of five. |
| Sunil (Group A) | The importance of maths in everyday life. Mathematics is a methodical application of matter. It is so said because the subject makes a man methodical or systematic. Mathematics makes our life orderly and prevents chaos. |
| Sunita (Group B) | In Hebrew, its root is “thinking.” They tell us that mathematics gives us the critical ability to learn and think logically in any field of endeavor. The skills of learning today are more important than knowledge, which is so readily available on the Internet. |
| Sanjana (Group C) | Math is an important part of our lives because in the future you will get a job that deals with math. Math is pretty much in everything you do, really. Math is important because it is the most widely used subject in the world. Every career uses some sort of math. |
| Ajay (Group D) | Maths improves problem-solving abilities. Teaches clearer logical reasoning. Sharpens concentration and observance. Develops confidence and self-esteem. |
| Price (Group E) | Knowing basic math principles keeps you from having to carry around a calculator because good use of math allows you to do many calculations in your head. |
