The experience of various teachers who have taught their students this system has shown that thanks to this technology, children gain enormous confidence in dealing with numbers and that this knowledge can also be applied and works in other areas of mathematics.
Adults who have had difficulty working with numbers in the past will immediately find these techniques useful for solving everyday problems (e.g. calculating percentages). Algebra becomes clearer.
Vedic mathematics is not a panacea. But it makes learning easier. That's why I think it plays an important role in the teacher's mathematics plan along with other effective teaching methods.
Students who have learned these techniques can mentally calculate calculations such as: 67 x 63, 95 x 95, 114 x 116 faster than others who use the calculator.
Students' numerical skills will improve, especially if they are initially very low.
Vedic mathematics has its origins in ancient India. These are a set of effective computational-based techniques that can be useful in many areas of mathematics. One of the most well-known rules is the “vertical and horizontal rule”.
Example: 12 x 13
We write a plus sign on the right side to indicate that the number 12 is greater than 10. Hence +2. And for the number 13 we write +3.
No matter which number you add to the number you checked (12+3 or 13+2), it becomes 15. You write this number under the first line.
The two numbers on the right are multiplied together. That makes 6, and you write that under the second line.
The result is then 156.
With a little practice, you can do such calculations in your head.
