Registration open for Manchester Workshop, 7-8 Sept
In person registration and online registration are now open for our 2-day workshop in Manchester on 7-8 Sept, and we look forward to seeing lots of you there.
This workshop will run from mid-morning (11.00 coffee, 11.30 session start) on Monday 7 Sept., until mid afternoon (15.00 finish & tea) on Tuesday 8 Sept. We hope this will enable many participants to attend with only one night away from home. Registration, teas/coffees and lunches are free, and we can offer some help with travel and accommodation costs for those, especially students and independent scholars, who do not have other sources of funding.
The main focus of the workshop is on student-staff co-creation of resources that draw on history of maths to promote inclusivity and decolonisation in the maths curriculum.
The programme will include:
- A presentation from Sayori Ghoshal (Max Planck Institute, Berlin) on the historical development of statistical sciences, and their impact on community identity formation in colonial and postcolonial India
- A presentation from Tom Coleman (St Andrews) on the “Inclusive Activities” project at St Andrews
- A panel discussion between staff-student co-creation teams, including Rehan Shah (Queen Mary University of London), Isobel Falconer (St Andrews), Ciarán Mac an Bhaird (Maynooth) plus students (names to be confirmed)
- Lightning talks and/or short presentations from attendees
- Collaborative resource development & upload, review and improvement of the HIDIM repository
