Mathematics Education and Society 6 International Conference (MES)
Berlin, Germany
http://www.ewi-psy.fu-berlin.de/en/v/mes6/
The Mathematics Education and Society (MES) conferences aim to bring together mathematics educators around the world to provide a forum for discussing widely the social, political, cultural and ethical dimensions of mathematics education; disseminate research that explores those dimensions; address methodological issues for this type of research; foster international co-operation in the area; and promote the development of a strong research community with an interest in those dimensions.
April 9th, 2010 (Fri)
Annual Midwest Regional Conference on the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SOTL)
Good Practice in Action
South Bend, Indiana
http://www.iusb.edu/~ucet/sotl.shtml
In 1987, Arthur Chickering and Zelda Gamson introduced us to their "Seven Principles for Good Practice in Undergraduate Education." They gathered a task force of experts to work with them to formulate these principles based on fifty years of research. These principles are a collection of findings on how teachers teach and students learn alone and together as well as how teachers and students communicate with each other. For more than two decades how, several iterations and permutations of these principels have been put into action, their applications researched for effectiveness, and their breadth and depth used for faculty tenure, promotion and review.
We invite submissions that focus either on scholarly research about or the implementation of these seven principles. Proposals may be for a presentation or a poster board. Accepted proposals will be considered for inclusion in the electronic proceedings of the conference. Accepted proposals may be a 20-minute presentation (panel of 2-3 presenters) or an individual 30-minute presentation to be followed by a 20-minute Q&A period.
