What is Out of The Box Thinking (OOBT) through Mathematics?

Out of The Box Thinking through Mathematics (OOBT) is an innovative online course offered by the IIT Madras Pravartak Foundation. Designed to nurture creativity and problem-solving skills, this course focuses on the logical aspects of mathematics and its real-world applications.
Accessible to school students, the course spans four graded levels, each introducing various problem-solving strategies. It emphasizes creative, out-of-the-box thinking by encouraging students to approach challenges with unique, non-linear solutions, moving beyond traditional methods. Whether it’s solving puzzles or managing projects, OOBT equips students to think creatively and logically, preparing them for the expanding world of technology.

Key Benefits of
Out-of-the-Box Thinking (OOBT) in Mathematics

Mastering Logic as a Tool for Innovation

While logic serves as the foundation of mathematics, this course goes beyond traditional approaches, demonstrating how logical reasoning can solve complex, real-world problems in diverse fields, particularly in technology.

Rediscovering the World of Mathematics

Students are invited to revisit familiar concepts with a fresh mindset while exploring new mathematical realms. This process helps them uncover hidden patterns and deeper insights, transforming their understanding of both known and unknown mathematical principles.

Unleashing Creativity and Expanding Horizons

OOBT fosters creative thinking, encouraging students to look beyond conventional solutions. They are empowered to approach mathematical challenges from new angles, unlocking fresh perspectives that lead to innovative problem-solving.

Empowering Problem-Solving with Unconventional Ideas

OOBT emphasizes the power of unconventional thinking, pushing students to embrace non-traditional approaches to problem-solving. By stepping away from standard methods, they are taught how to devise unique solutions that are not immediately obvious.

Transforming Problem-Solving with Indirect Methods

The course challenges students to think creatively, employing indirect, imaginative strategies that transcend standard problem-solving algorithms. This builds the ability to tackle complex challenges with ease and originality.

Equipping for Real-World Challenges

The course goes beyond theoretical learning, illustrating the practical applications of mathematical thinking in today’s technology-driven world. Students are equipped with the critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills necessary to tackle modern challenges and drive innovation.

About Mathematics:

Mathematics is not just mechanical calculations of numeracy or mere plugging of borrowed formulas existing for ages. It is a study of facts of numeracy and logic, where logic is interwoven in the study of mathematics. It provides an opportunity to explore self-assessment, data processing, validation, to develop broader thinking by dealing with a variety of problems which lead to multiple solutions. The joy of discovery in this process, helps realize the powerful applications of mathematics in various fields from Anthropology, Archaeology, Astronomy, Biology and so on.

About the Course:

Logic being the undercurrent in the study of mathematics, it is essential to develop a broader thinking, through its applications in the expanding world of technology. From solving a fun sudoku puzzle to completing an important scheduled project, the logic of working is much more important than the arithmetic involved in it. This requires creative thinking and a broader perception that is often known as Out of the box thinking. Out of the box thinking is solving problems through an indirect and creative approach, using reasoning that is not immediately obvious, and involving ideas that may not be obtainable by using only traditional step-by-step logic. In this unique course, such thinking is emphasized through rediscovering the known and unknown facts of mathematics logically, with an interesting broader perception of the manner of doing it.

For Whom:

These courses are easily accessible from your school children to professionals and researchers. The four graded independent levels of the courses present multiple approaches to problem-solving, debunking the myth that problem-solving is for the elite. It introduces new techniques in an easy-to-understand fashion; prepares the users to face real-life projects with confidence and ease.

Our Instructor

Shri Sadagopan Rajesh is a Mathematics Educator with deep passion for the subject.He has been teaching Mathematics over 3 decades among various range of students, both school and college, from age 10 years, motivating them with a variety of creative and designed courses.

As the founder director of Aryabhatta Institute of Mathematical Sciences since 1997, he has been conducting nurture programmes from primary to high school students, inculcating in them a love for problem solving, thus leading to Mathematical and other Olympiads.

Many of his students have chosen Mathematics as their career and a lot are doing research in the same.

He has been a resource person for several Mathematical Olympiad exposure camps at regional, national, and international levels, apart from conducting several teacher orientation and enrichment programs.

Shri Sadagopan Rajesh

He is associated with Prof Kamakoti V, for about two decades, currently the Director of IIT M and under his inspiration, developed courses such as Beautiful Maths, etc… which have been productive in terms of propagation of Mathematics. This has culminated in this venture of OOBT courses with different levels (Out of the Box Thinking through Mathematics) to have a greater reach to students and professionals. 

His popular taglines are: Keep Enjoying Mathematics; Formulation (Idea) is better than a rented formula.

According to Shri Sadagopan Rajesh, if we approach mathematics with discipline and passion not necessarily in a formal way but realize the subject with more logical and analytical reasoning, we can broaden our thinking. The important output is the development of skills which are essential to fit and effectively contribute in a rapidly changing technological world.
