Past Events
GVMA virtual conference: Artificial Intelligence & the Mathematics Classroom
Nov 30, 2023 (7:00 pm to 8:30 pm)
AI is impacting the math classroom at ever increasing rates. At this year’s Grand Valley Mathematics Association virtual conference, we will explore how AI and math education intersect. Our two speakers (Dr. Nancy Nelson, Conestoga College, "AI-Powered Chatbots - From Threat to Tool" and Dr. Dan Brown, University of Waterloo, "AI and Creativity") bring us decades of experience from the classroom and in research. They will explore with us what creative opportunities AI might bring to the mathematics classroom and present some new thought-provoking perspectives. Time for Q&A will follow their presentations.
The conference is online on Thursday, November 30 at 7:00pm. Participation is $10 (by eTransfer) per person, and a Google Form registration link can be found at the website below. You may register additional email addresses by using the "Other" selection of the final field. A Zoom link will be provided to all participants closer to the date of the event.(More details...)
