We are pleased to announce a new series of co-promoted events by two of our state mathematics organizations, the Wisconsin Mathematics Council (WMC) and the Wisconsin Section of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA). The name of the project is the Mathematics Bridge Project (MBP) and the official launch date for the first event is November 15th. This project was developed to bring members of both organizations together to share the great work that each of them are doing related to PK-16 mathematics and mathematics education in the state of Wisconsin.
Each event will feature two speakers, one representing MAA and the other representing WMC, speaking on a similar topic or theme. The MAA speaker will focus on sharing their work related to an area of mathematics they are currently focused on or conducting research on themselves, or with undergraduate students. The WMC speaker will share their current focus or research related to a topic in their mathematics classroom or in mathematics education. The idea is bringing together speakers and audiences from both organizations to better learn from each other. Hope to see you there!
