As part of its
on-going activities to foster research in undergraduate mathematics education
and the dissemination of such research, the Special Interest Group of the
Mathematical Association of America on Research in Undergraduate Mathematics
Education (SIGMAA on RUME) presents its thirteenth
Conference on Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education.
The conference is a
forum for researchers in collegiate mathematics education to share results of
research addressing issues pertinent to the learning and teaching of undergraduate
mathematics. The conference is organized around the following themes: results
of current research, contemporary theoretical perspectives and research
paradigms, and innovative methodologies and analytic approaches as they pertain
to the study of undergraduate mathematics education. The program will include
plenary addresses, contributed paper sessions, and preliminary paper sessions.
Sessions will begin at 7:00 pm, February

plenary will take place on Thursday evening followed by a reception. Conference
