Please reserve conference days 28.- 29. October 2026.
Theme of the 12th NORSMA conference is as follows:
DEIA: Diversity, equity, inclusion and access in mathematics
NORSMA 12 deals with important questions about mathematics and special education in the Nordic countries, where theories, empirical results and experiences from practice are presented. We are looking for both results from development and research already finalized, experiences from on-going work, and ideas for future collaboration.
Presentations and discussions are organized in themes and target groups. Themes include identification and teaching students in special needs in mathematics, strategies to prevent and intervene, teacher qualifications, and national policies on special needs and mathematics education. Target groups include children, adolescents, adults, and students.
The conference will be fertile ground for inspiration and co-learning across Nordic countries is provided, as education in the Nordic countries shares some similarities, but also differs. In addition, perspectives from outside the Nordic countries will be presented and discussed.
