Introduction

Research conducted by our teams has shown that the apparent loss of interest of our students in these areas of study is due mainly to:

  1. High cost of books, mathematical and scientific instruments needed to effectively learn and understand these subjects.
  2. Lack of proper motivation and encouragement of students to take interest in these subjects.
  3. Properly equipped science laboratories and vocational subject workshop in post primary schools.

 These research findings are quite similar to results obtained by other groups on this very important aspect of our national life. The immediate and long term effects of this trend, if allowed to degenerate further, will be :

  1. A further drop in the poor standard of education,
  2. A drastic drop in the number of students' enrollment in mathematics, science and vocational based courses in our tertiary institutions.

The Present ratio of Science to Art based courses enrollment of about 30:70 in our tertiary institutions means a bleak future for a country aiming to advance technologically.

General Aim of Cowbell Mathematics Competition.

  1. To arouse and re-awaken the interest of students in the study of the basic core subjects such as Mathematics,Practical Oriented Science and Vocational subjects in line  with the the National Policy on Education through well guided seminars, workshops, counseling and career talk.

  2. To improve the performance of our student in these areas of study by encouraging them through interesting competitive subjects and activities among various schools and students.

  3. Provide financial assistance to school  and students.
