Black Educators’ Association – Dalhousie Math Camp
The BEA/DAL Math Camp offers African-Nova Scotian junior high school youth, a math-based real university experience, to open doorways to STEM careers. The campers are broken into two groups that change between Mathematics sessions and Coding sessions. Each session has a black high school teacher paired with a university teacher as instructors. A puzzle-based approach is proposed for the Math sessions. In these sessions campers will explore topics like logic puzzles, counting based card tricks, binary numbers & error correcting…

The goals of the summer school are two-fold. First, to introduce students to research level mathematics and second, to encourage more female and female-identifying students to pursue graduate school in the mathematical sciences. The research theme of the 2024 summer school will be Combinatorial Commutative Algebra, as described below. By introducing the advanced mathematics in a supportive and engaging environment, we aim to give students the tools and the support structure that will enable them to thrive in graduate school.

EMF conference
The Espace Mathématique Francophone (EMF) was created to promote reflection and exchange within the French-speaking world on current issues in the teaching of mathematics in today's society, at primary, secondary and higher education levels. The EMF contributes to the development of a French-speaking community rich in cultural diversity, around the teaching of mathematics at the crossroads of continents, cultures and generations. The EMF colloquium aims to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, informations, experiences and researches on current…
