Maths Circles: A Collaborative Exploration for Gifted Minds

The article describes the ICTS-RRI Maths Circle, a Bengaluru-based initiative for secondary school students by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS) and Raman Research Institute (RRI). The circle focuses on collaboration and open-ended exploration and problem-solving rather than speed solving. It aims to nurture creativity and encourage students to ask new questions about Maths. The initiative has already started in several cities across India, with plans to expand to other parts of the country. The ICTS-RRI Maths Circle is a unique initiative that offers a different approach to learning Maths, which is more engaging and creative than traditional methods. It is hoped that this initiative will inspire a new generation of mathematicians and help to promote STEM education in India.
