Call for Mathematics Education SIG Convenors

Two opportunities have arisen to become a SIG Convenor for Mathematics Education and help lead the SIG over the next 3 years.Ìý

The Âé¶¹ÒùÔº Mathematics Education SIG aims to bring together researchers interested in all aspects of mathematics learning and teaching, both inside and outside of formal educational settings. We embrace an eclectic range of methodological and conceptual approaches to mathematics education research, encouraging creative approaches to tackling current issues.

Research interestsÌý

Research interests are wide ranging and include both responses to current debates in education and exploration of issues that have long been associated with mathematics education. We aim to be inclusive and to welcome new perspectives. Some examples are represented by presenters at recentÌýPRiME events

SIG aims

  • To support mathematics education practitioner researchers through the annual one-day Practitioner Research in Mathematics Education (PRiME) conference (run in collaboration with the British Society for Research into Learning Mathematics (BSRLM)), providing opportunities to share both recent research and research in progress and for networking
  • To enhance networking and research collaborations across the UK, for example by hosting regular fora exploring aspects of mathematics education across the four nations
  • To encourage critical engagement with policy and practice initiatives
  • To build and maintain links with other mathematics education organisations both nationally and internationally.

If multiple expressions of interest are received an election may be run.

As part of our wider commitment to greater equality and diversity at all levels of the organisation, we continue to seek increased representation from members with a Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) background. In acknowledging the structural inequalities and unjust power imbalances that affect our members, we wish to be proactive in addressing this within our own structures.
