The theme of the 46th PME conference is: Mathematics education for global sustainability
There will be four plenary lectures from invited speakers. Each lecturer will have 60 minutes for presentation, and a reactor will then comment on the presentation for 10 minutes. Following the reactor intervention, the lecturer will have up to 5 minutes to respond. In all plenary sessions, there will be time left for questions and comments from the audience.
The plenary speakers for PME 46 are:
Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel
University of Bristol, UK
University of Chile, Chile
Stockholm University, Sweden
The Plenary Panel will consist of editors of mathematics education journals and its topic is: A manuscript's relationship to global sustainability (e.g., The U.N. Global Sustainability goals, https://sdgs.un.org/ should be a criterion in determining its acceptance for a mathematics education journal.
The panel will follow the structure of an Oxford style debate, hosted by a moderator, and will take place between two teams, the “proponents” and the “opponents” of the claim.
The Plenary Panel will include the following editors of mathematics education journals:
Editor, Journal of Mathematical Behavior
Simon Fraser University, Canada
Editor, Journal for Research in Mathematics Education
University of Michigan, United States
Editor, ZDM Mathematics Education
University of Hamburg, Germany
Editor, Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education
University of Athens, Greece
Editor, Educational Studies in Mathematics
University of New Brunswick, Canada
