The Mathematical Association of Western Australia invites you to the 2021 WA Annual Maths Conference to be held at the Crown Convention Centre, Burswood 17 – 19 November. We are pleased to announce James Tanton, fingers crossed in person, as our keynote speaker. Australian-born James is a mathematician for the Mathematical Association of America and is the founder of the Global Math Project.

The 2020 global pandemic saw society experience the ways in which mathematics can be used to communicate statistics, explain reasons for actions and identify the effectiveness of vaccinations. However, using mathematics to explain the world is not new as mathematics has led the way for centuries. Our theme Maths: Leading the way will give you the opportunity to explore the endless possibilities that maths provides.

The annual conference aims to assist teachers from early childhood education, primary, secondary and post-secondary with their professional knowledge, practice and engagement in mathematics education. Registration opens 2 August, and we encourage you to take advantage of the early bird discounts before 22 September.
