Maths24 is a competitive, arithmetical card game aimed predominantly at primary and high school pupils. Although it can be played informally, the game was organised and operated within Southern Africa in a series of interschool, geographically increasing tournaments. The game experienced its peak during the 1990s, and is now no longer produced or played in any official manner. == History == The Maths24 game was devised, sponsored and officiated by the Old Mutual insurance company. It first began appearing in schools in 1989, and was even sold commercially to the public for a short period in the early 1990s. Old Mutual devised the game and competitions chiefly as a promotional activity to publicise the company. The project aimed to introduce pupils and encourage their participation in mathematics via entertaining activities. Interest in Maths24 began to taper off towards the end of the 1990s. Although official sponsorship and promotion of the game stopped, many schools and individuals continue to play the game informally. Due to its unconventional release and propagation, the game went through a variety of rules, playing-styles and even names, being known for some time as ''The I-Got-It Game''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maths24」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
