Year: 2021

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Challenges in mathematical education have been recognized throughout the world.Mathematical courses are among the most difficult subjects and a barrier for students in pursuit of their career dreams.Captivating puzzles and cross disciplinary projects are presented in this paper.They contribute to novel pedagogical strategies to foster students' understanding of mathematical foundations and relations among different mathematical topics Such extracurricular activities reduce mathematical anxiety, spark interest in the subject, and enrich students with mathematical fundamentals.They can be incorporated to a great variety of mathematical courses and are proven to work well in face-to-face and virtual classroom settings.
