Invited lectures (formerly regular lectures)
The invited lectures will be given by prominent researchers in mathematics education from different parts of the world who have been invited by the International Programme Committee. The lectures will cover a wide spectrum of topics, themes, and issues. The list below contains the names and countries/regions of researchers, who have accepted the invitation and given the preliminary title of the lecture.
The duration of the session is 60 minutes with 45 minutes lecture time plus 15 minutes of discussion. It is planned to publish a selection of the lectures in the second volume of the proceedings, after a peer-review process and revisions. The list will be updated and will eventually include final titles and abstracts.
