SALISBURY, MD---Teachers, school administrators and college professors from throughout the country recently visited Salisbury University for a mathematics teaching workshop funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).

Three new math specialists have joined CDE's Office of Standards and Instructional Support. Joe Brenkert comes to CDE from Front Range Community College, where he spent 15 years teaching math and math education courses. Jason Cushner is a PAEMST awardee who comes to us from Estes Park, where his career has included teaching, instructional coaching, and service as a school board member. Tabitha Nickerson served as a math specialist in Thompson School District and has experience teaching in rural Colorado schools. Let's give them a warm welcome as they help CDE support HB23-1231 and other mathematics initiatives that impact the state.

The 2023 CMAS results in mathematics were mixed with some bright signs of progress as districts recover from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Join September's CoMath Conversation to share and listen to other Colorado math educators as they make sense of their results and discuss possible implications for the 2023-2024 school year. The conversation will be held via Zoom on Thursday, September 14 from 4:00-5:00 pm and Zoom registration is required.

Instructional support is grounded in CDE's shared approach to Best, First Instruction as well as practices and strategies supported by professional organizations and scholars at the leading edge of mathematics education.

Entrepreneur Charles C. Hoskinson has made a $20 million gift to Carnegie Mellon University to establish the Hoskinson Center for Formal Mathematics, the university announced today. The center will advance mathematical research by improving global access to knowledge and resources for mathematics researchers, educators and learners.

"This generous commitment from blockchain pioneer Charles Hoskinson will allow CMU to pursue new collaborations at the intersection of mathematics, logic and computation," CMU President Farnam Jahanian said. "By enabling a new way of doing math and creating collaborative digital libraries for mathematical tools, we can accelerate discoveries in a broad range of disciplines. This center is a distinct expression of our strengths in collaboration and technology-driven experimentation, and I am tremendously excited by its potential."

Sitting at the intersection of philosophy, mathematics and computer science, "formal mathematics" works on mathematical theorems and proofs after they are stated in a formal language, which in turn allows us to develop computer programs to assist in discovering proofs, verifying the steps humans enter, and certifying the correctness of any proof that can be so formalized. The Hoskinson Center will develop the technology (via the Lean platform) and techniques needed to increase world-wide access to the power of formal mathematics. The center will support the development of Lean's digital library, develop new tools to help convert mathematical statements from natural language to a formal language, and create educational resources to make these tools widely available. Used widely, these tools have the potential to super-charge mathematics, which in turn has the power to super-charge computer science, physics and any other discipline that uses mathematics.

"Carnegie Mellon has the resources and experts to take the study of formal mathematics and disseminate it in a meaningful way," Hoskinson said. "We can bring together the best minds in mathematics, computer science and machine learning to create an infrastructure for using formal mathematics as a core educational tool. I am honored to be part of the creation of such an important center where collaboration, exploration and discovery opens the door to incentivizing and supporting mathematical activity and giving it the resources for advanced methods of automation."

The new center will be led by Jeremy Avigad, professor of philosophy in CMU's Dietrich College of Humanities & Social Sciences and professor of mathematical sciences in the Mellon College of Science, who will provide mentorship and guidance to direct research contributions and collaboration. Avigad's research areas include mathematical logic, automated reasoning and philosophy of mathematics. The center will include joint postdoctoral positions between the Dietrich College and Mellon College of Science.

"Computational proof assistants based on formal mathematics are a transformative technology," Avigad said. "They not only help us ensure that the mathematics we do is correct, but also provide powerful new tools for communication, collaboration, education and mathematical discovery."

"The Department of Philosophy is a recognized world leader in formal logic and the foundations of mathematics, and this center brings together areas of strength in mathematics, logic, computation, computer science and philosophy," said Richard Scheines, Bess Family Dean, Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences. "Charles' generosity is helping us to make it possible for Lean mathematics to be more predominantly studied and to make it more accessible as an educational tool."

"Mathematics is essential to scientific discovery and analysis. Bringing the latest technology-enabled tools to our researchers and students will further our vision for creating the future of science," said Rebecca W. Doerge, the Glen de Vries Dean of the Mellon College of Science. "The Mellon College of Science community, including our highly ranked Department of Mathematical Sciences, is excited to collaborate on this center as we continue to move forward the field of mathematics in a truly interdisciplinary fashion."

Mathematics Professor Mark Demers, PhD has taught at Fairfield for 15 years. His interest in systems that exhibit chaotic behavior, as well as systems out of equilibrium and models from mathematical physics, is a branch of theoretical mathematics that studies the evolution of systems over time.

Launching the 27th ICMI Study on Mathematics Education and the Socio-Ecological, by Frederick Leung, President of ICMI. ICMI is happy to announce the launching of a new ICMI Study, namely the 27th ICMI Study on Mathematics Education and the Socio-Ecological. This envisioned theme of Mathematics Education and the Socio-Ecological is a timely one for exploring and consolidating theoretical knowledge in the area internationally, and for informing practice in mathematics education. Through the socio-ecological lens, research and practice that connect with social, political, and ecological (including environmental) issues and related ethical concerns, as well as their relations to mathematical knowledge and mathematics education, are valued.

The 27th ICMI Study will highlight three aims: (1) to gather state-of-the-art scholarship in socio-ecological mathematics education around the world and to engage in across-perspective dialogues; (2) to explore the different ways in which a theorization of the socio-ecological influences the focus and methodological approaches of mathematics education research; and (3) to provide insight into the practical implications of socio-ecological research associated with the mathematics curriculum, pedagogy, teacher preparation and education-related policies, beyond traditional approaches.

ICMI AMOR Updates. The ICMI AMOR project aims at building online resources reflecting highly significant and influential research in mathematics education at an international level, which could serve as a reference not only for researchers in the field, but also for educators, teachers, curriculum developers and policy makers and other agents in the field. In order to build our resources ICMI has decided to focus on each Felix Klein, Hans Freudenthal and Emma Castelnuovo ICMI Awardee, through what we have called the AMOR (Awardees Multimedia Online Resources) project.

As this edition of IMU News is being finalized, the 10th Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) is taking place. The HLF is a networking conference where 200 carefully selected young researchers in mathematics and computer science spend a week interacting with the laureates of the disciplines: recipients of the Abel Prize, ACM A.M. Turing Award, ACM Prize in Computing, Fields Medal, IMU Abacus Medal and Nevanlinna Prize. Visit the HLF YouTube channel for a wealth of information on the HLFs.

Leading experts will discuss the latest scholarship on strategies for mathematics instruction and academic interventions; highlight solutions rooted in research and successful classroom practices; and explore emerging resources.

Our focus is on excellent teaching, mentoring, and advising by faculty in mathematics, computer science, and mathematics education. One-on-one interactions with our faculty scholars provide opportunities for learning and growth outside of the classroom, including research projects and independent studies. And our mathematics education program is top-notch: nationally recognized by the Council for Accreditation of Educator Preparation and structured to give future teachers multiple opportunities to hone their skills. ff782bc1db
