Registration is open for the 10th Indigenous Math Symposium to be held in May. This combined virtual symposium is being held with UBC for this year, thanks in part to Dr. Cynthia Nicol at UBC who has been leading her team and UFV’s Sq’ép team in this effort.
The cost is $10 + GST which covers both sessions and is free to students.
Session 1 | Tuesday, May 11, 3:30-4:30
Looking to the past to change the future | Artist Nico Williams, Anishinaabe beadwork artist of the Aamjiwnaang First Nation, shares his beadwork to engage us in mathwork.
Session 2 | Tuesday, May 18, 3:30-4:30
Sharing projects circle | Teaching mathematics with Indigenous perspectives and practices: What are we learning?
This symposium is an opportunity for teachers, administrators, Ministry representatives, community members, and academics to connect, explore, imagine and share new ideas, resources and research on Indigenous mathematics education from kindergarten to Grade 12.
Together we hope to:
- Learn about new research in mathematics and Indigenous education
- Discuss and share approaches, research and educational projects for improving Indigenous math education
- Develop community connections to facilitate and support improving Indigenous math education
