Project Maths encourages students to apply their knowledge to real-life situations in an exam setting, as opposed to memorising material to get through the test. While particular emphasis is placed on the development and use of information processing, logical thinking and problem-solving skills, the Project Maths approach also stresses the importance of students developing their skills in communicating and working with others.
