SoftMaths an ICT tool for Mathematics
at JSS inaugurated in Accra
Accra, Nov.20, GNA – SoftMaths, the first Information
Communication Technology (ICT) tool for the teaching and
learning of Mathematics at Junior Secondary School (JSS)
level in the country, has been inaugurated at Saint Margaret
Mary Secondary School at Dansoman, a suburb of Accra.
It was conceived and designed by Mr Justice Annan, a Tutor
of the school to address problems in teaching and learning
Mathematics.
Mr Ishmael Tetteh Aryeetey, Head of ICT at the school
stressed the need for students to take keen interest in
Mathematics.
He advised them to disabuse their minds of the wrong notion
that Mathematics was a difficult subject to learn.
Mr Aryeetey, a Former Accra Metropolitan Chief Executive
urged students to devote much time and attention to the
learning of Mathematics and appealed to parents and
guardians to endeavour to purchase SoftMaths for their
children and wards to motivate them to learn Mathematics.
Mr Annan was optimistic that other devices would be
developed to assist in the teaching and learning of
Mathematics and other subjects in schools.
