Workshops are hands-on activities for a limited number of participants (30-40) and targeted at a specific type of attendees, be it teachers (from pre-school to university), graduate students, and/or researchers, who are interested in learning or trying out something through active participation. Normally, a workshop will be allotted one or two one-hour time slots.
Workshops should acquaint participants with, and provide experience in, a variety of areas such as those suggested by the following examples:
- • an alternative/innovative approach to teaching or to classroom practice
- • a non-traditional mathematical topic for the curriculum, or a non-traditional approach to a traditional topic
- • a methodology or a technique in mathematics education research
- • an innovative use of information and communication technologies in the service of mathematics education
- • an approach or a method to analyzing videotapes (of individual students at work, classroom sessions, etc.)
- • ways to read, write or assess academic papers in mathematics education
If you want to contribute with a Workshop please visit the How to contribute and How to submit proposals pages.
Decisions will be announced no later than February 15, 2008. Latest time for changes to an accepted workshop programme is April 1, 2008. Latest time for changes to an accepted workshop program is April 1, 2008.
