IAMIT Workshop 2023
The workshop will take place on March 21 – 24, 2023, in Karlsruhe, Germany.
Idea
The idea of the workshop is to bring together techniques and experiences from the teaching and learning in the field of applied mathematics. A particular focus will be on the implementation of mathematical modeling in schools and at university level. Especially, advanced mathematics and long-term projects will be discussed. Due to the application-oriented focus of this workshop, interdisciplinary STEM projects will also be highlighted.
In particular, we plan to discuss the following seven topics:
- Implementation of mathematical modeling in high-schools
- Practical elements in active learning environments
- Product orientation in modeling tasks
- Taxonomy in project based learning
- Interdisciplinary education
- Mathematical Modeling in digital environments
- Mathematics education in the era of AI and Data Science
The topics are chosen broad in order to allow many possible connections between the different participants. One goal of the workshop is to explore topics for international collaboration and joint research projects in advanced applied mathematics.
Program
Various presentations on the above seven topics are planned during the workshop.
The detailed program follows.
