Kurzbeschreibung

The first INDRUM Conference will be held March 31 – April 2, 2016 in Montpellier, France. INDRUM 2016 is the first in a series of biennial and bilingual conferences that will address all aspects of research in didactics of mathematics at tertiary level, including students' and teachers' practices and the teaching and learning of specific mathematical topics. The conference aims to attract researchers in didactics of mathematics at university level, mathematicians and any teacher or researcher with interest in university mathematics education (UME). The conference programme will consist of a plenary lecture, a panel discussion, thematic working groups (6 hours each); short communications in parallel (two sessions of 1h30m each) and a permanent poster exhibition. We are delighted to announce that Michèle Artigue (University Paris Diderot, France) has accepted the invitation to be our plenary speaker. The conference proceedings will be available before the conference and we aim to publish a post-conference book. The selection of papers and posters to be presented will be done through peer review. This Conference is part of the work of INDRUM (International Network for Didactic Research in University Mathematics), a newly constituted international network initiated by an international team of researchers in university-level didactics of mathematics. INDRUM aims to contribute to the development of research in didactics of mathematics at all levels of tertiary education, with a particular focus on building research capacity in the field and on strengthening the dialogue with the mathematics community. The objectives of INDRUM include:

• to federate existing UME research in Europe as wella s the rest of the world
• to develop collaborative grant applications to national, EU (e.g. Horizon 2020) and international funding schemes
• to reinforce the visibility of UME research within the mathematics education and the mathematics communities
• to contribute to the development of UME doctoral programmes.

Themen

Thematic Working Groups $(TWG)^{2}$
