IGNOU MESP-01 Project – Interest in Mathematics and Mental Health of Students in Secondary School in Raipur

Mathematics is significant in our daily lives because we use much of what we were taught in our daily activities. For instance tiling floors may be done by figuring the size of the area. Being able to figure out percentages can come in handy when faced with nutrition labels. Road signs and recipe books feature fractions that tell us the distance to our destination or how much of an ingredient to put in a dish. Calculating monthly bills requires math. Placing pictures on a wall and making certain, they are hanging straight takes some knowledge of geometry.
