Introduction:
Most studies dealing with mathematical education deal with the difficulties encountered by
students in learning mathematics. One of the main reasons for these difficulties is the gap
between the level of instruction and the student’s capabilities and understanding of
mathematical concepts
(i)Field Trips
Field trips is undertaken for securing information, changing attitudes,
awakening interest, developing appreciation, promoting ideals, enjoying new
experiences. They can initiate a unit of study, they can be a part of the core of it or
they can give it the finishing touch. They are a very good means of getting
knowledge first hand of confirming and supplementing second hand knowledge. They
are a means for sharpening observation, testing principles and doing everything.
It is important for the faculties to support the kids in presenting something that
they have learned in the most beautiful manner. There are certain benefits of
organizing such exhibitions in schools. Students get a platform to show what they
have learned and what they are good at, as well.
There are many students who always try to implement the things that they learn
and they find these platforms of exhibitions a great way to showcase what and all
that they have tried. It is always good to give the students a chance for implementing
the things that they have learned and also to apply their ideas and present things
differently in their own unique way.
It makes the students really creative and they have practical knowledge to learn
what they read. It increases their thirst for knowledge and drives away their boredom
and monotony. It has become a tradition in our educational field that students need
not see, learn and practice the things they deal with practically. Arranging regular
mathematics fair can contribute a great deal to sensitize their desire and interest for
science and mathematics.
Students of this age want to create something. It is quite natural. When they get chance
for creation, definitely it exercises a profound impact on their overall learning. It also
helps develop the social skills of learns as it increase interaction and relations with
local community which is a big part of learning.
Conclusion
The field trip and mathematical exhibition suggests a wide variety of mathematical activities
and exposure to subject matter outside of the classroom. It enables interesting and non
conventional mathematical activities to the student at the elementary school level.
