Final Thought on the Mathematics Lesson Journey

Whoa! Time flies. The Mathematics journey has ended. It was a module that I had expected to be very BORING. Everytime I had Mathematics lessons from primary to secondary school it was very slow and I would not understand the lesson. The lessons for my BSC05 Mathematics was a pleasant one. It was an eye-opener. Thoroughout the module, I was exposed to different types of lessons and was given opportunity to explain or discuss with one another about solving the problems. The class came out with different solutions for each problem that we were asked to solve. It was a new experience for me as there was no right or wrong answer instead the class came out with different solutions to solve the problems, I did not get the answers from the lecturers.

The experinces for this module has motivated me to bring such lessons in the classroom to encourage children to come out with different ways to solve a problem. I feel that this will encourage children to be more independent and will definitely build up their confidences in Mathematics that will help them later in the future.

The journey ends here, but my learning will not and never ends as I will strive to always learn new things that I could use in my own classroom.
