Mathematics Genius Hour Blog

  In this blog, I will write my thoughts on how learning a programming language, such as R can prepare high school students for their professional goals in the data science field .  Data Science of fers one of the most promising long-term and  rapidly growing career fields  of the last decade. within the data science field, we learn to mine, analyze, and transform data to predict a business’s future. we use data to derive and extract meaningful insights which are becoming valuable for a variety of fields from finance to healthcare to academic research.      There   is a growing need for up-and-coming generations of students to learn how to effectively transform raw data into knowledge. As students learn biology, chemistry, and physics, I think high school students should start to build a strong foundation in data science early in their educational training to support progressive proficiency in data science later. Data analytic skills are an essent...

New changes in Curriculum grade-9  My project is about coding for the data management course, which is being offered in grade 12.    The coding component reminds me of what we discussed about the  de-streaming of mathematics. In this blog, I would focus on the de-steaming of mathematics in grade 9. Since September 2021, the Ontario school boards started to de-streaming mathematics grade 9.                                    What does it really mean? De-streaming means that students will no longer be separated into Academic and Applied Streams. A de-streamed mathematics class will prepare students for university, college, apprenticeship, and workplace pathways. Ontario is the only province in the country that separates students into academic and non-academic streams as early as Grade 9. Finding r...
