Perspectives on Mathematics special semester 2024
The seminar series “Perspectives on Mathematics: Its Humanity, Culture, and Communication” has explored and illuminated the human side of mathematics—the culture(s) of mathematics, how we interact and do research in it, who we include, and how we communicate maths to students and the broader public. Organised by Francis Su and Stephan Tillmann, it has taken place at the University of Sydney.
The seminar has comprised five two-week blocks centred on a topic. Each block was followed by a free week that allows participants to explore the topic further or to attend aligned events.
The special semester began on 1 March and leads up to the International Congress of Mathematical Education that takes place in Sydney from 7–14 July 2024.
