Workshop Synopsis:

One of the best ways to make mathematics fun and build a love of learning Mathematics is GAME. Games are a fun and engaging way to reinforce concepts taught in the classroom. Often, students are having so much fun that they don't even know they're learning. For instance, ChesuTI, is one of my games to play with form 2 students. ChesuTI was developed as a teaching aid. Inspired by the famous game of Chess and Yu-Gi-Oh cards in Japan. The four topics involved in ChesuTI are Polygons, Circles, 3 Dimensions and Isometric Transformations. The objective of ChesuTI is to engage students in learning mathematics and improve their mathematical achievement in the areas of measurement and geometry. ChesuTI is also a game-based learning that challenges knowledge and skills namely cooperation, communication, creativity, critical thinking, and values.

Objectives:

Share experiences to develop ChesuTI with participants.

Who should attend:

Undergrad & postgrad students (Mathematics Education), Secondary Mathematics Teachers and Mathematics Educators.
