Math is a subject that is often hated by many students around the world. Not many people like this topic. The reason this topic has become one of the most unpopular is because of its complexity. It comes with not one but countless complications. Although the subject is quite important for solving all big and small problems of life, not many people still find joy and excitement when solving questions in those books. Why is it like that? Well, the human mind enjoys both stories and problem solving, but topics that involve stories often turn out to be more interesting. Additionally, the increased pressure on students to achieve excellent grades in math makes it even more difficult. A subject like math needs to be interesting and exploratory. Students should be shown how to make the subject more manageable and interesting. Sure, current teaching methods have changed a bit to make learning better and more fun, but subjects like math still lag behind in keeping students interested. The world would be a better learning platform if students were taught to solve complex problems the way they like.
If that’s true, then why do we sometimes give math puzzles?
The reason is very simple and easy to understand. All we want is to make you love this theme. Whether school or college made you like or dislike math, we try to make a little space for the hated subject in your heart. Why? Because we humans are given this life to learn, evolve and grow continuously, not just until we pass high school or university. We are born to learn and grow, and we are allowed to develop new interests even later in life. So even if you are in your late twenties, thirties or forties or just entering your teens, you are still allowed to draw, sing, dance, explore and of course enjoy the wonderful world of math.
