The MathU app is an educational device which functions as a ‘tutor in your pocket’ to assist learners with their Maths and Science marks. It makes use of Android phones which are preloaded with the relevant subject curriculum, enabling students to peruse through and revise these subjects outside of the normal school environment.
Following the deployment of 172 Androids at Steve Biko School in 2018, we deployed another 155 Android phones, preloaded with the MathU programme to Grade 12 students at Tembisa Secondary School in 2019. Both schools were identified as beneficiaries owing to our various interventions at adjacent game reserves, namely Dinokeng Game Reserve in the past, and the current programmes we run at Rietvlei Nature Reserves. The long term plan is to continue rolling this initiative in more schools as we expand on our conservation interventions.
