Regular Lectures

The regular lectures are presented by prominent mathematics educators from different parts of the world who have been invited by the IPC. The lectures will cover a wide spectrum of topics, themes, and issues of interest to specific audiences, in contrast with plenary lectures which are of general interest. The list below contains the names in alphabetic order of those who have already accepted the invitation. The list will be updated on the web site and will eventually include titles, keywords, and abstracts. Please check the web site for details. There are will be approximately 60 regular lectures, running in five time slots in the congress timetable, each with around 12 simultaneous lectures.
