The Promoting Mathematical Resilience will be taking place on Friday 4th March and Saturday 5th March.
We are looking forward to welcoming speakers and delegates from multiple backgrounds to the University to what promises to be an exciting and informative event.
The theme of the conference encompasses the continuum of need for mathematical resilience in one’s lifetime; it will include numeracy throughout the lifespan, capability to grow new skills, and activities involving both a little and a lot of maths.
The conference is now full, however resources will be made available via the conference website in due course.
