Topic Study Groups (TSG)

A Topic Study Group (TSG) is designed to gather a group of Congress participants who are interested in a particular topic in mathematics education. TSGs will promote the discussion of a variety of perspectives on the theme of the group. A TSG will serve as a mini-conference and display the progress of the discussion in the intervening years, which will consist of high-standard discussions enabling the newcomer to get a broad overview on the state-of-the-art and allowing the experts to lead discussions at a high level. The team will provide participants of their TSG not with a nationally framed insight into the strands of the discussion of the theme, but with an overall overview on the international discussion as broad as possible and allowing for insight into less well-known strands of the discussion from underrepresented countries. 

As like previous ICMEs, in ICME-14, the TSG is the major arena for participation. There are 62 TSGs designed and divided into two classes, odd TSG numbers (TSG 1, TSG 3, …) in Class A, and even ones (TSG 2, TSG 4, …) in Class B, to run in different sets of timeslots. Every TSG should have three sessions with 300 minutes in total, while the number of sessions in some groups was modified according to specific circumstances. There are also two additional 60-minutes’ timeslots for posters, shared by all TSGs.



The List of Themes and Teams (Updated on July 18, 2021)

The agenda attached here is provided by each group separately. It is not in a unified format. For a unified version, please refer to our conference program. 

Besides, the version of TSG agendas in the program brochure were produced in advance of the Congress. Please note there will probably be some changes depending on whether the contributors listed in the program eventually attend the Congress. The latest version will be updated here in the attachment of each group.
