AMESA KZN REGIONAL CONFERENCE 2012 INNOVATION AND CHANGE IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF MATHEMATICS The 21 st Century has thus far been characterised by various changes and innovations, namely social, economic and technological. The issue of these changes and innovations has been acknowledged and hence, we have a constant, and sometimes radical, adaptation of the school curriculum (for example CAPS). In this environment of change and innovation we are all attempting to adjust our teaching, so that we will not be left behind. Mathematics education is ideally positioned to engage with these changes and innovations. It is in this spirit that AMESA KZN COUNCIL hosts a conference that will expose our mathematics teachers, in a practical way, to some of these changes and innovations. The AMESA KZN COUNCIL invites you to their annual regional conference. In an attempt to make a useful contribution towards the teaching and learning process in the province, the conference will address issues that are pertinent to all teachers in South African classrooms. The theme of the conference is Innovation and change in the teaching and learning of mathematics”. All presentations will address the rapidly changing curriculum and technology that can be used to address topics within the curriculum. The first 300 teachers who register and attend will receive a free gift of a Sharp calculator worth R 156, and all participants on the day will be entered into a lucky draw to win one of four Casio Graphics calculators with an Over Head Projector screen worth almost R 1 800 each. Anyone wanting to present at the conference should send a one page abstract to Vimolan Mudaly by the 24th of April 2012.

AMESA KZN REGIONAL CONFERENCE 2012 INNOVATION AND CHANGE IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF MATHEMATICS 

The 21st Century has thus far been characterised by various changes and innovations, namely social, economic and technological. The issue of these changes and innovations has been acknowledged and hence, we have a constant, and sometimes radical, adaptation of the school curriculum (for example CAPS). In this environment of change and innovation we are all attempting to adjust our teaching, so that we will not be left behind. Mathematics education is ideally positioned to engage with these changes and innovations. It is in this spirit that AMESA KZN COUNCIL hosts a conference that will expose our mathematics teachers, in a practical way, to some of these changes and innovations. The AMESA KZN COUNCIL invites you to their annual regional conference. In an attempt to make a useful contribution towards the teaching and learning process in the province, the conference will address issues that are pertinent to all teachers in South African classrooms. The theme of the conference is “Innovation and change in the teaching and learning of mathematics”. All presentations will address the rapidly changing curriculum and technology that can be used to address topics within the curriculum. The first 300 teachers who register and attend will receive a free gift of a Sharp calculator worth R 156, and all participants on the day will be entered into a lucky draw to win one of four Casio Graphics calculators with an Over Head Projector screen worth almost R 1 800 each. Anyone wanting to present at the conference should send a one page abstract to Vimolan Mudaly by the 24th of April 2012.
