Many at this stage might say something like, “Time flies; our term as the ICMI EC seems so short.” However, for me personally, the past three years and eleven months have felt quite long. At the start of our term, COVID-19 was impacting humanity at its hardest. The entire world seemed to have come to a standstill, waiting for the pandemic to subside and for life, including our students’ school life, to return to normal (half a year into my presidency, I found myself confined to a quarantine hotel room in Shanghai for three weeks, waiting to attend ICME-14!). The EC waited and waited earnestly for our first in-person meeting (which did not occur until more than a year into our term) so that we could “start working.” We felt, and still feel, that much more could have been accomplished if not for the pandemic. We will be remembered in the history of ICMI as the “COVID EC.”....</p></div> </td> </tr></table></td> </tr></table></th> </tr></table></td> </tr></table><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" align="center" class="r0-o" style="table-layout: fixed;

Using mathematics in art opens doors to new ideas, beautiful and captivating creations.</strong></p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">A special invitation is sent to teachers to celebrate mathematics, art, and creativity, showcasing the harmony of logic and imagination, where numbers dance with colors, equations sculpt beauty, and ideas transcend boundaries to inspire and innovate. Creativity unites mathematics and art, fields that may seem separate, but were originally intertwined, both seeking to reveal the beauty of the universe.</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">A special feature of 2025 will be the <strong>IDM School Program</strong>. The program connects schools from different countries that share a common language (English, French, Portuguese and Spanish) for a period of several weeks before or around the IDM. Teachers and their classes can participate in interesting and amusing math activities based on the 2025 IDM theme. Participating teachers will be offered a free virtual workshop in their language presenting attractive activities and background information. Afterward, teachers will join a group in a chat tool in the chosen language to exchange ideas and share experiences. If desired, schools can also work more closely together, organizing online meetings and/or live exchanges between students. The IDM team will moderate the groups.</p></div> </td> </tr></table></td> </tr></table></th> </tr></table></td> </tr></table><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" align="center" class="r0-o" style="table-layout: fixed;

Currently, the REM continues to be held annually and coexists with other Argentine encounters on ME.</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">The 47th REM activities were organized by the AMU Education Commission (created in 2015).

Annotated bibliographic entries are particularly solicited, and any ideas for promoting the study of Ethnomathematics.</p></div> </td> </tr><tr><td class="r13-c" align="left"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" class="r14-o" style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%;"><tr><td align="right" valign="top" class="r36-i nl2go-default-textstyle" style="color: #3b3f44; font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5; word-break: break-word; padding-top: 15px; text-align: right;"> <div><p style="margin: 0; color: #d5a96a;"><a href="https://62s8s.r.sp1-brevo.net/mk/cl/f/sh/1t6Af4OiGsDhsrxnR6SmOjluVNBNPH/Q4XFqX67QSNz" target="_blank" style="color: #d5a96a; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;" sib_link_id="40" templating="n">READ THE FULL NEWS</a></p><p style="margin: 0; color: #d5a96a;"> </p></div> </td> </tr></table></td> </tr></table></td> </tr></table></th> </tr></table></td> </tr></table><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" align="center" class="r0-o" style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%;"><tr><td class="r16-i" style="background-color: #ffffff;"> <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation"><tr><th width="100%" valign="top" class="r5-c" style="font-weight: normal;"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" class="r6-o" style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%;"><tr><td valign="top" class="r7-i" style="padding-left: 15px; padding-right: 15px;"> <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation"><tr><td class="r35-c" align="center" style="padding-bottom: 30px; padding-top: 30px;"> <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" height="1" style="border-top-style: solid; background-clip: border-box; border-top-color: #d5a96a; border-top-width: 1px; font-size: 1px; line-height: 1px;"><tr><td height="0" style="font-size: 0px; line-height: 0px;"></td> </tr></table></td> </tr><tr><td class="r13-c" align="left"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="100%" class="r28-o" style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%;"><tr><td align="center" valign="top" class="r32-i nl2go-default-textstyle" style="color: #3b3f44; font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5; word-break: break-word; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: center;"> <div><h2 class="default-heading2" style="margin: 0; color: #1f2d3d; font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif,Arial; font-size: 16px; word-break: break-word;"><span style="color: #1e3a88; font-family: 'Trebuchet ms', helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><strong>News from the International Study Group on the Relations between the History and Pedagogy of Mathematics (HPM)</strong></span></h2></div> </td> </tr></table></td> </tr><tr><td class="r11-c" align="center"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" role="presentation" width="313" class="r22-o" style="table-layout: fixed; width: 313px;"><tr><td class="r10-i" style="font-size: 0px; line-height: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-top: 15px;"> <img src="https://62s8s.img.sp1-brevo.net/im/sh/WESf5HDYCF3B.png?u=WtVElij8PJZGfdU3OFsn3IS6l9FMoHsh" width="313" border="0" style="display: block; width: 100%;" sib_img_id="17"></td> </tr></table></td> </tr><tr><td class="r18-c nl2go-default-textstyle" align="left" style="color: #3b3f44; font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5; word-break: break-word; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-top: 15px; text-align: left; valign: top;"> <div><p style="margin: 0;">As usual, summer has been quite busy. There have been several events of interest for our group. In fact, many of them have been promoted, organized or coordinated by members of the HPM community.</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">First, shortly before ICME-15, and as a satellite event, the 11th meeting of the HPM group was held on the Campus of the University New South Wales. This was already reported in September’s ICMI newsletter.</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">Then, three activities were held during ICME-15. Topic Study Group 5.4 “The role of the history of mathematics in mathematics education” (Abdellah el Idrissi, and Renaud Chorlay), and two discussion groups: “Epistemology, history and sociology in mathematics teachers’ education: interactions and implementations” (Évelyne Barbin, David Guillemete, and Ysette Weiss), and “History of Mathematics Education: accomplishments and open questions” (Alexander Karp).</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">In addition to all these ICME-15 related events, two more conferences took place during summer. The first Summer School in the History of Mathematics Education was held in Lisbon (Universidade NOVA) in July. Also, the eighth offering of the International Conference on the History of Mathematics Education was held in Warsaw (Polish Academy of Sciences) in September (see picture of the opening ceremony).</p><p style="margin: 0;"> </p><p style="margin: 0;">This surely proves that we are a lively and active community.
