The Fields Institute Mathematics Education Forum promotes discussion of issues in mathematics education at all levels, with special emphasis on education in the Province of Ontario. The Forum membership comes from a wide spectrum of education and non-education sectors. The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences serves as the host of the Forum, but does not determine the agenda or the conclusions of the Forum. It is the goal of the Forum to consider objectively new ideas and diverse views in mathematics education, to facilitate consensus and to promote the enhancement of mathematics education in Ontario and Canada.
The Forum's mandate is to foster the development of new ideas, methodologies and materials. To provide a forum for discussion, in which members can freely discuss new proposals, and exchange ideas, perspectives and expertise. To encourage the development of consensus among diverse groups with respect to possible changes that could improve education in mathematics, and to work for the implementation of such changes.
