A strong foundation in mathematics is essential for sharpening the mind, developing a scientific temperament, and building problem-solving skills that benefit individuals in every sphere of life. From pursuing engineering and science degrees to careers in data science and research, proficiency in mathematical concepts is crucial.
To support students in strengthening their mathematical knowledge, especially those who cannot afford private tuition or coaching, the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) is offering a free online mathematics course on the government's SWAYAM portal.
The course is designed to help learners clarify doubts, strengthen concepts, and achieve proficiency in problem-solving. Students can register for the course through the official portal: SWAYAM Mathematics Course Link.
The course covers key Class 12 topics, including Relations and Functions, Inverse Trigonometric Functions, Matrices, Determinants, Continuity and Differentiability, and Applications of Derivatives. Structured in a week-wise format, it includes e-texts, video tutorials, self-assessment questions, and additional web resources for extended learning.
