plans for this session
Well the society has decided to organise events for all classes (apart from 12th- simply not possible). here's the list of activities and months they are scheduled for
- 6th Sudoku & mathematical puzzles May
- 7th Poster making competition May
- 8th & 9th Mathematical models & projects August
- 10th Maths Quiz April
- 11th Maths Quiz October
That was just the crude thing. The interesting part follows.
I had a talk with Jonaki ma'm. We decided to have at least 2 guest lectures this year in the months of August and September. Most probably its going to be by Dr. Amitabha Tripathi(currently working as lecturer at IITD, Dept. Mathematics). The topic is going to be Ramsay Numbers. I know it is a repeat of the lecture we had in Maths Crusade last year. But this time we'll have it for a larger audience. Best part is from now on we shall have video recordings of all such lectures. Our grand event - Maths Crusade, will evolve this year. In what sense?? Well, it shall be a two day event. On the first day we shall have an exhibitions of 'working models (mathematical!)'. It is going to feature all models created by maths lab students (in our maths lab batch Aritra is already working on planimeter- a device for measuring area under a closed curve- uses trigonometry). We are aslo working on some projects which shall be displayed. Take for example Newton's method & Fractal pattern, Utility Theory for arbitration of disputes (thats my project) . I talked about some project and model making competition for 8th & 9th. These shall be on display as well. We shall be inviting models form other schools and the exhibition is actually going to be a competition. The second day will be the classical form of Crusade.
Well this time we shall make sure we have teams from the school going for competitions like Niamat Rai(an interschool contest organised by Springdales), INTEL Science Talent DIscovery Fair ( probably the best annual competitions amongst all).
I'll keep you updated.

Hey
Its really great and awesome to know that u've planned so much and are ready to work on it.. I must say "maths society is really evolving". And I wish you all the best...
And yeah do comeout with maths magazine this year. We all are waiting for it :D.
Your maths crusade idea is simply superb.. Carry on with it, and keep up the good work.

I hope that this year we do have a competetion!! (for class VIII).. Coz last year, VII was the only class that did not have a competetion!
Its good to see that ppl are bloggin often. But still most of our new members hardly come online (specially those lazy kinds who hardly want to do anything). So I think we'll continue with having a meeting every week (Tuesday Break)
Any junior student who's interested in helping us (like Sakshi and Abhishek..) can come in these meetings.
Another Important Point: Since we'll be having vacations for the juniors from May, we might not hold these events in the exact order. We'll notify you of any change.

Quoting Aniket: "Maths Society is really EvOlViNg....."
