MathfanatixAs young leaders on a quest to effect positive change in their communities, JCI Barbados has sought to determine how to reverse the negative trend seen in the performances of students in Mathematics at the Common Entrance Examinations within the last decade, through the introduction of Mathfanatix!
Mathematics is one of the core essentials needed by students to guarantee academic success and progression throughout one’s life and career. Additionally, JCI Barbados believes that a nation which has a solid foundation in Mathematics is more likely to be successful in being competitive in this global technological age. Mathfanatix will be the catalyst for this change! |
