ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION #1
MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM REFORMS


The Centre for the Advancement of Science and Mathematics Education (CASME) is pleased to announce the launch of a new multi-sectoral mathematics education forum. The CASME Mathematics Education Research, Development and Practice Forum (MERDeP Forum) is an independently hosted forum for bridging the divide in research, development, policy and practice in mathematics education.

Through the forum, CASME plans to host MERDeP discussions on a bi-annual basis. The issues, topics and agenda may be suggested by the community of researchers, teachers, teacher educators, education department members and other practitioners. The forum will also serve as a Professional Networking platform.

MERDaP is for you if you are interested in participating in
open, robust and development oriented engagement
​with mathematics education issues.

The  topic to launch the first MERDaP Forum is a Roundtable Discussion #1 on ICMI Study 24: SCHOOL MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM REFORMS

TOPIC: What is ICMI Study 24 and how can I participate?

FACILITATOR: Prof Renuka Vithal

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Researchers, Teacher Educators, Development practitioners, trainers and facilitators, in fact anyone with a genuine interest in all aspects of school mathematics curriculum reforms.

Participants in this Roundtable will be given a brief overview of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI) Study 24 on School Mathematics Curriculum Reforms: Challenges, Changes and Opportunities (see attached Discussion Document).

Prof Renuka Vithal is the former Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Teaching and Learning, Dean of Education and Professor of Mathematics Education of the University of KwaZulu-Natal; and is currently Co-Chair of ICMI Study 24. She is also a member of the Board of Trustees of CASME.
