CityU AIMS to make maths fun

City University's Department of Mathematics is teaming up with schools to introduce the mathematics enhancement scheme for primary and secondary school students in the New Territories.

More than 20 of the university's mathematics students volunteered to train 1,500 Primary Five to Form Three students in a new and interactive way.

The scheme aims to raise students' interest in maths. By using game-play to teach maths, the university hopes to help students apply mathematical knowledge to daily life.

The scheme is divided into four stages, and the first three will be carried out during the summer holidays. The last one will start at the beginning of the next academic year.
