Gokseong-gun, "Try Studying Basic Math Like This for Lower Elementary Grades"

Parent Information Session Held to Promote Self-Directed Learning
Friendly and Fun Approach Through Play and Hands-On Activities

The Gokseong-gun Future Education Foundation held a parent information session to help lower-grade elementary students develop basic math skills. The foundation plans to support students in becoming more comfortable with math by connecting self-directed arithmetic learning via mobile applications with parental guidance at home.

On the 16th, the Gokseong-gun Future Education Foundation announced that it had held a parent information session at the Gokseong Creative Convergence Education Center's Kkumkium Maru to support basic math learning for lower-grade elementary students.

Parents of students participating in the program attended the session. The event included explanations of how to use the "Chaifang Math" application, details of the learning process, and effective methods for guiding children at home, allowing parents and children to build math fundamentals together using mobile devices at home.

This program, promoted as part of the Gokseong Education Advancement Special Zone's capacity-building initiative, ultimately selected 29 first- and second-grade elementary students through the Gokseong Education Portal. The selected students will continue self-directed math study at home using mobile devices, focusing on basic arithmetic such as addition and subtraction.

Through this program, the foundation aims to strengthen the essential basic arithmetic skills required at the lower elementary level, while also enabling students to experience math as an enjoyable and challenging activity rather than as a difficult or burdensome subject. In particular, the foundation expects that ongoing interest and encouragement from parents at home will have a positive effect on enhancing learning engagement and fostering self-directed learning attitudes.

Meanwhile, the Gokseong-gun Future Education Foundation is also actively operating the "Visiting Play Math Education Program at Schools," centered around the Gokseong Creative Convergence Education Center's Kkumkium Maru. A foundation representative stated, "We will continue to expand tailored math programs so that students can experience math in a friendly way through play and hands-on activities."
