第十五届国际数学教育大会(ICME-15)国际程序委员会 (IPC) 第一次会议于202252日至6日在澳大利亚悉尼举行。21名IPC委员中有17名委员线下出席了会议。

 IPC负责制定国际数学教育大会的科学程序。对于ICME-15而言,当地组织者制定的大会愿景被IPC采纳,并用于设计所需要考虑的各类学术活动的目的和内容。IPC同意维持最近几届国际数学教育大会建立的总体程序框架,包括大约12类学术活动。本次会议就以下学术活动已做出决定或取得重大进展:

  • 大会报告人的提名

  • 两个大会团体报告和五个专题调查组的主题和成员

  • 六十多场邀请报告的受邀学者姓名

  • 确定专题研究组,同时确定受邀组织这些专题研究组的联合主席和组员。在决定邀请谁组织时,所有的考虑因素中包含了地域和性别平衡。


本次会议商定了一些旨在加强大会程序的举措,其中包括:

  • 承诺通过提供活动指南和模板的方式让参与者更清楚地预期所参与的学术活动

  • IPC成员将发挥更积极的作用,除了专题研究组之外,他们还将担任其他学术活动的联络员,与其他学术活动的贡献者联系沟通。

  • 重新调整一些专题研究组来减少专题研究组的数量和主题重叠

  • 同意专题研究组的初始贡献可以采用论文或海报的形式。此项举措旨在扩大专题研究组参与者的选择范围,同时提高海报在大会活动中的地位。

  • 明确工作坊和讨论组之间的区别,将工作坊导向为实践活动。

  • 为工作坊和讨论组提前征集提案

  • 邀请所有IPC委员成为ICME-15的大使,委员将协助在同事之间以及在自己国家和地区的活动中推广ICME-15。


 IPC确认,早期研究生涯日的重点主要是为参加者提供职业发展以及建立人脉。


本次会议同意 ICME-15将线下举办。


 ICME-15IPC第二次会议将于202326日至8日在悉尼举行。



Report of ICME-15

Kim Beswick (Convenor of ICME-15) and Will Morony (Chair of the Local Organizing Committee)

 The first meeting of the International Program Committee (IPC) for ICME-15 was held in Sydney from the 2nd to the 6th of May 2022. Seventeen of the 21 IPC members were able to attend the in-person meeting.

 The IPC is responsible for the scientific program of an ICME. For ICME-15, the aspirations for the congress developed by the local organisers were adopted by the IPC and used to frame the purposes and content of the various program elements that were considered. The committee agreed to maintain the general program structure, comprising approximately 12 elements, established by recent ICMEs. Decisions or major progress in relation to the following elements was made:

  •  Nomination of plenary speakers

  •  Topics and personnel for two Plenary Panels and five Surveys of current research

  •  Names of scholars to be invited to give one of more than 60 Invited Lectures

  •  Identification of Topic Study Groups and people to be invited to be Co-Chairs and members of the teams to organise these. Geographic and gender balance were considered in all considerations of who to invite.


 A number of initiatives were agreed upon to strengthen the program. These included:

  •  A commitment to providing greater clarity in relation to what is expected of those involved in the different program elements by providing guidelines and templates

  •  A more active role for IPC members who will take on liaison roles to support contributors to program elements beyond the TSGs

  •  Realignment of some of the TSGs to reduce their number and overlap

  •  Agreement that initial contributions to TSGs can take the form of a paper or a poster. This is intended to broaden options for TSG participation and to raise the status of posters in the program.

  •  Clarification of the difference between Workshops and Discussion Groups by orienting workshops towards practical hand-on activities

  •  Bringing forward calls for proposals for Workshops and Discussion Groups

  •  Inviting all IPC members to become ICME-15 Ambassadors who will assist with promoting ICME-15 among colleagues and at events in their own country and region.

 

The IPC confirmed that the focus of the Early Career Researcher Day be primarily on professional development for the participants as well as networking.


 It was agreed that ICME-15 would be an in-person event.


 The second meeting of the ICME-15 IPC will be from the 6th to the 8th of February 2023, in Sydney.
