Mathematics and Life 106 AI in mathematics education an introduction

 AI in Mathematics Education an introduction

Snehal Prabhune


Thanks for introducing me to the august audience Dr Moghe. I am truly obliged. Continuing the series of the blog I would like to introduce concepts and terminologies of artificial intelligence, how these terminologies are shaping the world in which we are working and teaching. All subjects in general and mathematics in particular. Also, I will be talking about maths games enhancing the concept of Beyond Abacus.


Primarily I have been into the education industry for the past 7-8 years.  I have worked intensely on various research opportunities in IIM Indore as an Academic Associate (IT) and as a data engineer in IIT Mumbai Incubator Iken solutions Mumbai. In IIM Indore, the focus is more on IT management project management, HR and agile methodologies so I worked closely with various faculties in this research domain. Also, during the tenure I co partnered with my Alma Mater  University of Petroleum and Energy Studies Dehradun on development of an application bracket Android for class participation marking (c p marking). The  preliminary stages of App were developed but interfacing with the system is yet to be done.


In Iken Solutions as a Data Engineer, I developed algorithms for categorising and recommending hello tunes for Airtel. The research was done using text mining and audio classification. It led to creating customer profiles and finally recommending hello tunes.

Most importantly, both these work experiences helped me to grow as a professional. My exposure to the use of echnology in education started and during my MTech program when I had written a research paper on education games their importance in learning concepts and hence an overall better learning experience.


 Although, since 2010 I had joined IIM Indore as General Duty Assistant,  a plush 9 to 5 job in a green campus with least struggle but the entrepreneur inside me told me that there are bigger horizons and that's why I went for M.Tech Artificial Intelligence in 2012 and finished it in 2014 with better grades than my Engineering (Information Technology) from Medicaps Institute of Technology and Management (Affiliated with RGPV University)


Having long formal exposure to Mathematics as a subject, parental teaching background, my own AI background coupled with lots of risk appetite and entrepreneurial spirit my focus is on artificial Intelligence and maths and it's gamification.


More  coming up in the next blog, hold on your seats.

  2. Good morning, today's blog written by Snehal, my niece, I am very proud and overwhelmed to read about her academic achievements and her research work. Being a relative is a natural affection, but reading her write ups, really makes me feel proud of her, as well as her parents. Dr. Moghe is really blessed with really very affectionate, intelligent and obedient daughters. Congratulations Sir for Snehal's first publication on Beyond Abacus.

Mathematics and Life 2 About me - Early Childhood to formating years

  Overview  Past   36 years I have been a maths classroom teacher by choice.  Childhood and family Born in a Maharashtrian Bramhin family in 1960, with father being a medical doctor, childhood was very blissfully ignorant of the ground realities of the world. Being a government doctor with zero PR activities, I continue the trend, transfer or long posting in tribal areas was a norm. We spent 6 years in Bastar district in early 1970s. One of the most interesting things to recall is we three brothers often used to sit and talk a lot in Hindi. In the presence of parents, we three used to interchangeably toggle Hindi - Marathi. Hindi with brothers, Marathi with parents. In 8th standard, the elder brother school fee was a whopping 30 paise per month, my huge fee was 15 paise per month and the third had to pay nothing in the Government Multi purpose school Bastar. Moving to Indore To reduce the stressful impact of transfers on our studies, in 1976 myself and elder bro...

Mathematics and Life 4 Mathematics as just a computational tool

  The importance of definition  I would like to discuss how the policy makers', parent body, school administrators, investors', teachers' perception of what is it to be good at maths ? affects the students and ultimately the workforce, industry, economy in general. 1. Mathematics as a computational tool    This is the current, popular perception of knowing maths. Our classroom teachings, examination system, wide spread tutoring, coaching business all tend to develop, appreciate, the skill of reaching one unique answer as fast as possible. The Abacus or its various versions, as a training tool are classic examples of this. Students are expected to be too good at a skill in past 61 years of life I have not needed. I ask the readers, how often, if at all, you needed to find 5813 x 3876 infraction of a minute and that too accurately ? I bet never. But, just as a ritual, under peer pressure children go year after year to learn something which is first of all not needed at...
