Theme

Cultivating 21st-century skills in students is the global trend in educational reform. The abrupt onset of a pandemic has thrust all teachers into the deep end of online teaching, underlining that change is the central theme of modern education. With the rapid advancement of e-learning, STEM / STEAM education, and artificial intelligence, how can traditional mathematics teaching evolve? What form of mathematics education should we offer to students to equip them for the shifting future? Both Hangzhou and Hong Kong attach great importance to basic education and the development of education technology. This symposium offers a platform for mathematics educators from Hangzhou and Hong Kong to exchange insights, share ideas, and foster the professional development of mathematics education.
