Learning Outcomes
Through Math Beyond Borders collaboration, students developed strong communication skills as they confidently shared and explained ideas to their peers in India. They practiced active listening, teamwork, and turn-taking while applying their math understanding of money in real-life contexts. The activity helped them become more open-minded, reflective, and confident communicators as they engaged with another school and learned from a different perspective.
