ICME Proceedings and Publications

Each International Congress on Mathematical Education results in a book of Proceedings, and sometimes other publications as well.

Other Publications

In addition to the above material (formal Congress Proceedings, books of Selected Lectures, CDs), a wide variety of ICME-related publications on specific themes and topics usually appear as well, as an outcome of a given ICME. Such publications may result, for instance, from the activities of Working Groups on the programme of the congress or of ICMI Affiliated Study Groups that have met on the occasion of the congress.

For example, the outcome of the thirteen “sections" of the ICME-3 congress (1976) was collected in a book published by UNESCO:
New Trends in Mathematics Teaching, Volume IV.  Prepared by the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction.  UNESCO, 1979. 

Researchers who have published books related to an ICME congress programme (as outcomes of groups) are kindly invited to send information to the Secretary-General.

The project of the ICMI Digital Library, launched jointly by ICMI and IMU, aims at making freely available on the web all the publications (Proceedings, etc.) resulting from ICME congresses.
