The Mathematics Education Seminar is designed to facilitate discussions about a variety of topics related to mathematics education research. We hope that the seminar can cultivate the sense of community among those interested in mathematics education across campus, and all interested parties are welcome to attend the seminar, even on a week by week basis.

Location: Kidder 356 Day and Time: Thursdays, from 2:00-3:00pm.

We read and discuss a paper each week. For each date below, there is a link to the paper that will be discussed on that date.
