For an education that is meaningful
Programs 2023-2024
For more than two decades, we have worked to develop and implement innovative methods in mathematics and science education. These methods are based on a simple premise – that children learn when they are engaged in activities which are meaningful to them.
Conducting workshops for teachers, educators, school leaders, working closely with schools and children; participating in policy discussions in mathematics education; designing and producing low-cost teaching-learning materials (TLMs) have all been a part of this endeavour. >>
Ongoing Programmes
Supporting teachers to conduct classes which are Active and Interactive even with the online platform
Curricular programmes
In network schools such as Heritage, Shiv Nadar etc, when classes started in the online platform, we began working with teachers to redesign the curriculum for the current context. We looked for meaningful mathematical explorations at home in which parents are co-educators, and through which children could develop a deep and flexible understanding.
Foundations Programme
We have been working closely with schools to develop an understanding of the qualitatively different education needed for children in the Foundational years. Foundational numeracy develops through a process of engagement in purposeful activities. Concrete materials play a pivotal role in this process of engagement – of making, enquiring and finding patterns.

Working with NGOs
So that no child stares blank
at the blackboard – confused,
helpless, not in control.
To give that joy of understanding
to share the beauty
we have seen in the world –
the beauty we have created in communion,
to create anew with the young ones.
To overcome the dilemma of
abstract and concrete.
To reclaim for humanity
the beauty of mathematics and science.
This simple human effort…
join, even if we falter.
