12-02webAt the next edition of SciBar in Liverpool, Professor Peter Giblin of the University of Liverpool will ask “Does Maths Matter?”

Maths teachers are often asked “Why do I need maths?”.  Some people are proud of being bad at maths!  Peter will give his view on why maths matters and describe some of the ways it contributes to day-to-day life.

Come along on Tuesday 7th February and find out more.  As always the audience will be welcome to give their own opinions and ask questions.  Remember there's no such thing as a silly question at SciBar! 

Please find attached the poster for the event.  As always we would be very grateful if you would print a copy and display it on your office/school/community centre notice board and forward to anyone you think might be interested.
