SPECIAL SPACES AND DISPLAYS
Technology Playroom
2026 Technology Playroom will be a dynamic, interactive zone that will allow visitors to pick up and play with some of the latest apps and hardware products that have been developed for the mathematics education market. It will be an enjoyable space where you can put your hands on the new technologies, ask questions, and delve more deeply into the technologies than you would be able to at an exhibitor’s booth or in a workshop.
Exhibitors Hall
With OAME2026, you will again be able to visit our exhibitors’ physical booths and hold discussions with the companies’ representatives. Find out what new products or services they may offer to help you in the classroom. Discuss the pedagogical uses of their materials. Have an open discussion with others interested in the particular company’s offerings, and share ideas to bring back to the classroom. Some exhibitors will have items for sale at their booths. Dedicated times will be set during the day so that you can easily fit them in between sessions.
Indigenous Space
We are fortunate to have been able to book the Kalihwíy̲o̲ Circle, which is an Indigenous gathering place at Fanshawe College, and is a tribute to Indigenous stories, ways of being, and beliefs. Sessions scheduled into the Kalihwíy̲o̲ Circle will include those focused on Indigenous ways of learning.
OAME2026 has 56 exhibitors and sponsors. The sponsors below stand out for their generous contributions to the financial success of the conference.
Our thanks go out to the OAME2026 planning team from the TEAMS and WOMA chapters of OAME. They have donated their time over the past 2.5 years to bring this fabulous event to fruition.
