[Maths-Education] Mathematics Education meets the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice Workshop - Loughborough University - June 12-14

[Matthew Inglis]

Dear all,

Below you will find information on a workshop Yacin Hamami (cc'd), Brendan Larvor, Keith Weber and I are organising in Loughborough in June, concerning the interactions between mathematics education and the philosophy of mathematical practice.

It takes place the week after MCLS (https://www.the-mcls.org/mcls-2023).

All the best

Matthew

Mathematics Education meets the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice Workshop
Date: June 12-14, 2023
Location:  Loughborough, UK
Cost: Free but registration for physical and online attendance is mandatory
Website: https://yhamami.github.io/mathed-pmp-workshop/

== Description

The objective of this workshop is to bring together mathematics educators and philosophers of mathematical practice to discuss topics lying at the crossroads of the two fields. The workshop is meant as an opportunity for researchers from both fields to make a step towards the other one. It will also be an occasion to identify beneficial ways for mathematics education and the philosophy of mathematical practice to interact.

We hope this workshop will help each field gain a better understanding of the other discipline. This will allow mathematics educators to be more aware of, and build upon, key scholarly contributions from the philosophy of mathematical practice, and vice versa. We will also explore if there are opportunities for collaboration between scholars from the two disciplines.
