In line with the Individual Social Responsibility (ISR) drive that is being championed by TEDSF through the MathsGee QnA initiative, MathsGee is inviting all learners to participate in the crowd-sourced knowledge generation through the question and answer platform developed by MathsGee.
At TEDSF,we believe that knowledge is available and should be free. We also believe that every child deserves to be supported whilst studying from home.
We encourage every high school learner to participate in our forum by sharing their expertise and asking questions so that we can achieve a complete mapping of all questions in STEM subjects. We hope that this repository of knowledge will help learners, parents and teachers be the best they can be in STEM subjects.
