Institute for Mathematical Pedagogy (IMP)
A maximum of 25 people (teachers, advisers, academics, and us) meet and work on mathematical tasks
mostly chosen by Jenni, Corinne and Chris. The point is not to do the tasks, but rather to notice what is involved in working on the tasks, making sense, making progress, getting stuck, working with others, and the pedagogical implications of what we notice in ourselves.
.
There are no 'conference papers' though sometimes people are moved to write about their experiences (see MT 191; 194; 232) and often there is an opportunity to offer a task connected with the theme.

For more information contact the IMP Registrar
Fiona Haniak-Cockerham in the first instance via imp-enquiries @ hotmail.com In these uncertain times we are not sure that we will be able to go ahead with the Institute as usual in Oxford this coming July, however we are hopeful and planning for this to be the case. If meeting with you all in person becomes impossible, then we will certainly run a reduced form of the Institute virtually. We are able to offer the same guarantees about reimbursement as we did for 2020 and we are in contact with Ripon College who are being as flexible as they can with us in view of the length of our connection with them. |
