Hi all….I have been asked to talk about mathematics on radio 702 tomorrow (Wednesday 27 January 2016)…and I hope you are able to listen in.

I will be addressing some of the points which I am developing on this web site, as well as within the Museum of Mathematics at www.muma.org.za (which is still being developed).

I will provide an additional post on the issues which arise from this talk, and I am planning to focus on the following:

• the importance of Grades 7-9 for building a solid base for future mathematics
• why mathematics is important for the really interesting job prospects for the future
• how to develop your mental mathematics capability
• to answer any specific questions which you may have

I look forward to hearing from you as you call in…
