Home: About
The Mathematical Association of Victoria recently hosted its Maths Talent Quest Award Ceremony. This was an opportunity to celebrate the wonderful finance-related investigations completed by primary and secondary school students. Watch Carly speak about finding opportunities to connect mathematics with young people's financial experiences within their families and communities. This initiative was supported by the Department of Education and Training Victoria.
Most of what is taught and learned in financial literacy programs in schools reflects middle class values and a conservative ideology about the role of government and individuals in achieving economic prosperity. It's time for a more holistic and modern vision.
There’s nothing like a financial crisis to remind us of the importance of quality financial education at school. So, is a NewsCorp columnist and financial self-help author the saviour schools need?
