The Mathematics Laboratory has been introduced in the year 2004 for active learning and for making mathematics learning joyful and interesting. The Laboratory is equipped with materials needed to help the students form concepts through meaningful and relevant activities.
It is equipped with a number of models like Number meter, Number apparatus, Cuisenaire strips, Pocket Chart, Dominoes, Fraction Disc, Watch Model, Spike Abacus, Geoboard and many other such models to facilitate the development of concepts in an easier way. The students have also taken initiative to develop models of prisms and pyramids under the guidance of teachers so that they can use them in solving different problems in a much simpler way. Various teaching aids are being introduced to explain topics in a better way. Care is taken to promote patience, persistence and creativity in completing a task by each student and also exercising team - working skills which include listening and co-operation.
The latest innovation in the Maths Lab is a Mathematics Software which helps the students of all ages to understand the basic concepts of Mathematics. The software helps to solve the doubts and queries through vivid and illustrious demonstrations. The software is easy to use and provides a colourful and appealing interface. The Software is a Dynamic Geometry construction and exploration tool. It enables the construction of precise figures while preserving mathematical relationships. Dynamic interaction gives the power to explore, to analyze and to understand mathematics easily by giving infinite number of examples at the same time. The software has been implemented through a LAN system wherein the instructions provided at the faculty computer can be viewed at each monitor.
