The Aga Khan University Institute for Educational Development (AKU-IED) successfully concluded its weeklong celebration of International Day of Mathematics (IDM) 2024 with a grand show inspired by this year’s theme: “Playing with Math.” The IDM is a global celebration aimed at promoting the joy of learning mathematics. The AKU-IED organized a series of events throughout the week, including workshops and activities for educators and students alike. In her opening remarks, Dr Munira Amirali, assistant professor and IDM Event Chair at the AKU-IED, emphasised: “Play-based learning facilitates children’s cognitive development, promotes logical reasoning, and helps them link different mathematical concepts, reframing mathematics as an interesting subject in their minds.”
