[cmath] Invitation to the 2017 Margaret Sinclair Memorial Award Lecture

[Malgosia Ip]

Dear Members of the Mathematics Community,

 

On behalf of Ian Hambleton, Director of the Fields Institute for Research in
Mathematical Sciences, I am delighted to invite you to the 2017 Margaret
Sinclair Memorial Award Lecture on April 19, 2017 at 5 pm. The event will be
held in room 230 of the Fields Institute (222 College Street, Toronto, ON).
A reception will follow the public lecture. 

 

The Margaret Sinclair Memorial Award recognizes an educator in Canada who
has demonstrated innovation and excellence in promoting mathematics
education at the elementary, secondary, college, or university level. 

 

This year’s lecture will be delivered by Dr. Jean-Marie de Koninck,
Professor Emeritus from the Université Laval and 2016 winner of the Margaret
Sinclair Memorial Award. His presentation, entitled “The Human Part of the
Equation”, will examine how math education and math outreach can benefit
from a more people-oriented approach. Additional event details can be found

website.

 

Please RSVP to the lecture and reception by sending an e-mail to
