The Wiseman Mathematics Contest has announced the winners for 2022. The Wiseman Mathematics Contest was initiated by the app faculty member Dr. Arzu Sardarli in 2008. PromoScience, a program within the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), has supported the program’s start-up. Since then, thousands of First Nations students in grades 4 to 6 across Canada have participated. The Contest’s purpose is to motivate young students in First Nations schools in Saskatchewan and other provinces to learn Mathematics in a competitive environment.
