Adults Learning Mathematics (ALM)
Network and conferences: alm-online.net
ALM was formally established in 1994 with the aim to promote the learning of mathematics by adults through an international forum which brings together those engaged and interested in research and developments in the field of adult mathematics teaching and learning.
The conference will include opportunities to:
review what we have learned about adults learning mathematics and numeracy over the last few decades
discuss how current research and practice might be used to build the future of adult learning in this area
consider how the mathematics learning histories and trajectories of adults can inform future practice
Themes
The overall theme of ALM 24 is: All hands-on Math.
Conference themes are:
- All Hands-on Math: Examples of inspiring and practical mathematical activities for adults
- Mathematics in and for the Workplace
- Future Trends in Adults Learning Mathematics
- Mathematical APPlications for Adult Education
- Critical Mathematics in a Post-Truth Era
- Several international keynote speakers: Prof. Ionica Smeets, University of Leiden; Drs. John Poppelaars, Bearingpoint, Amsterdam; Dr. Stefan Buijsman, University of Stockholm; Prof. Diana Coben, Waikato University, New Zealand; Prof. Kathy Safford-Ramus, Saint Peter’s College, Jersey City (NJ)
