The eighth edition of the African Science Academy (ASA) Maths Masterclass goes to the Upper
East Region of Ghana on 23rd November, 2022. ASA with support from Tullow Oil and in
collaboration with the Regional Directorate of the Ghana Education Service are organizing the
one-day hands-on capacity building for 70 senior high school mathematics teachers drawn from
all the secondary schools in the region.

The Math Masterclass is an educational symposium designed to be an occasion where senior
high school Math teachers share, discuss and widen their scope of knowledge in addition to
coming up with more engaging and practical ways of teaching Mathematics.

This edition features an equal representation of male and female mathematics teachers in the
region. The math masterclass would equip and steer the teachers through effective teaching
techniques and how to teach some challenging math concepts using technology and direct
instruction.

Since its inception in 2017, the ASA Math Masterclass has been held across several regions in
the country, making an impact in the educational lives of over 350 teachers and more than
45000 students.

Founded by the African Gifted Foundation, the African Science Academy is an all-girls STEM
school for females all across Africa who have a profound interest in Maths and Science. ASA
also has a dream of changing the mindset of Ghanaians-especially females towards STEM
education and where possible, assist them in finding their passion in these fields.
