WELCOME TO THE EXCITING WORLD OF MATHEMATICS

Dear All, I am delighted to share with you all that I was honored by Dr. Kiran Bedi on the 2 nd National Mathematics Symposium which was organized by AVAS in lieu of celebrating National Math’s Day, 22nd Dec’2013. 

Dear All, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh paid tribute to mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887- 1920), on the occasion of 125th birth anniversary. He announced that his birthday - December 22 - would be a National Mathematics Day. Srinivasa Ramanujan (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920) was an Indian mathematician, who made extraordinary contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. Ramanujan independently compiled nearly 3900 results (mostly identities and equations). His work continues to inspire mathematicians even today!  Srinivasa Ramanujan, born into a poor Brahmin family at Erode on Dec. 22, 1887, attended school in nearby Kumbakonam. By the time he was 13, he could solve unaided every problem in Loney's Trigonometry, and at 14 he obtained the theorems for the sine and the cosine that had been anticipated by L. Euler. Ramanujan became so absorbed in mathematics that when he entered the local governm...

Dear All, I am delighted to share with you all that I was invited as a resource person to take sessions for teachers and students held at IIT (Delhi) on 20 December 2013.  The 2nd National Mathematics Symposium was organized in lieu of celebrating National Math’s Day, 22nd Dec’2013. This event has been planned to honor all the Math’s teachers for their contribution in the field of Math’s. There were total of around 120 teachers and 60 students from Delhi. It was really a great learning and sharing experience. Amit Bajaj

Dear class XII Students, I hope that all of you must have performed well in the Second Term Exam held today i.e. 16 December 2013.  I have prepared two sets for the exam but in the exam only set B has come. But for your reference  I am providing both the sets of the question paper and the solution key.  Question Papers: Set A         Set B Solution Key Errata: Answer to question no. 22 is 3/root(2) unit.  All the best...

Dear All The Fourth Intra School Mathematics Olympiad was held in CRPF Public School, Rohini on 8 November 2013. Hopefully, it was a great learning experience for all. It surely provided an extended platform for all the participating students and it is wished that it is utilized to its fullest. Here are many young  Ramanujan’s  and  Shakuntala Devi’s  in our school who had performed very well in the exam. Check out the result here: V-VIII RANK HOLDERS      V-VIII MERIT HOLDERS IX-XII RANK AND MERIT HOLDERS     Congratulations to all the rank and merit holders for their brilliant performance in the  Olympiad. You may again like to see the  question papers  and their solutions.

Dear All, Mathematics, often called as language of nature has become an integral part of everyone’s life. In today's highly competitive world, one has to bear a lot of mental stress and also have to get involved in so many things in order to acquire knowledge. This is where co-scholastic activities play a very significant role. They provide the much needed exposure for a student. CRPF Public School has fulfilled its motto of striving towards excellence by organizing and successfully completing its Fourth Intra School Mathematics Olympiad on 8rd November 2013. Around 250 students enthusiastically participated in the Olympiad held in school premises. Such Olympiads and events provide a great and extended platform for the students to nurture and showcase their ability and talent. It was a towering learning experience for the students of the school from class V to XII. To encourage students, merit certificates will be given to those scoring at least 60% along with the normal ...

Dear All, Generalization is a very important tool for obtaining new results in mathematics. We first experiments with numbers and geometrical shapes and observe some patterns emerging and then we make some conjectures on the basis of these observations. These conjectures do not get the status of theorems unless these can be deducted either from certain axioms or can be deduced from other results which have been earlier proved in mathematics. Let us consider some examples of valid as well as invalid generalizations. CONJECTURES BASED ON PRIME NUMBERS: SOME MORE CONJECTURES: Conjectures are obtained by generalizations but only those generalizations are valid which can be proved rigorously. We must continue to generalize, but we must generalize with care. So, what did you conjecture today! Note: I could not type mathematical symbols on the blog. So, I have attached images in this post.

Dear All, S.D. Public School, Pitam Pura in collaboration with NCSTC, Department of Science and Technology is organized “Mathematics Movement - (Phase II)” from 3rd to 5th October 2013. There were many interactive sessions for the teachers and the students. The main focus of the event was to enhance the student’s skills in various areas of Mathematics. I had my sessions on all three days with class IX and X students. @ Mathematics Movement held at SDPS Day 1: An interdisciplinary activity relating mathematics with environment was taken. This activity was planned by Mr. Ajay Marwah (HOD – Math’s) from SDPS. Activity The calculations were based on rough estimation. While preparing myself for this activity, I came across another area where mathematics is used. It's about various paper sizes like A4, A3 etc. Some  interesting  results are here. I will be doing a project soon on this topic with my students. 1     2       3 ...

Dear All, A famous quote about Isidor Isaac Rabi (born American physicist and Nobel laureate recognized in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance ) “My mother made me a scientist without ever intending to. Every other Jewish mother in Brooklyn would ask her child after school: So? Did you learn anything today? But not my mother. She would say, "Did you ask a good question today?" That difference--asking good questions--made me become a scientist.” We all are aware that Problem Solving is the focus of learning and teaching of Mathematics. However the problems have to be exciting, non-routine and challenging. In order to get thrill and excitement in Mathematics, students and teachers have to be trained not only in problem solving, but also in Problem Posing in Mathematics . Posing problems in Mathematics is not as difficult as it may appear, if students can learn some techniques for posing problems. As suggested by late Prof. J. N. Kapur, some technique...
