Our Annual Meeting brings together scholars, educators, and practitioners to explore both emerging and enduring challenges in numeracy, quantitative literacy (QL), and quantitative reasoning (QR) education.

We welcome proposals on a wide range of topics, including (but not limited to):

• Post-secondary QL/QR courses for general or targeted student populations
• QL/QR as pathways to graduation or entry into STEM fields
• Quantitative reasoning centers, including organization, tutor training, and lessons learned
• U.S., Canadian, and international perspectives on QL/QR
• QL/QR through the lens of social justice and human progress
• QL/QR education and skills in the AI era

Presentation formats include:

1. Presentation (25 minutes): 20 minutes for presentation; 5 minutes for questions and comments.
2. Lightning Talk (5 minutes): Presenters share the seed of an idea or project in 5 minutes.
3. Panel (50 minutes): Panelists explore a topic, followed by a general discussion.
4. Roundtable (50 minutes): Lead a collaborative group discussion on a topic; this format emphasizes dialogue and is not a presentation.

Priority proposal submission deadline: Monday, August 3, 2026 Final proposal submission deadline: Tuesday, September 1, 2026

We are excited to announce the two keynote speakers for this year’s meeting:

Conrad Wolfram and Miroslav Lovric

Conrad Wolfram is a physicist, mathematician, and technologist, as well as the Strategic Director and European Co-Founder/CEO of Wolfram, the computation company behind Mathematica, Wolfram Language, and Wolfram|Alpha. A leading voice on hybrid AI, computational thinking, and the future of mathematics education, he founded Computer-Based Math and Computational Thinking. His book, The Math(s) Fix, presents his vision for transforming mathematics education for the AI age.

Miroslav Lovric is a professor of mathematics at McMaster University whose work spans mathematical modeling, numeracy, and undergraduate education. He is the co-author of 99 Numbers: Mathematics of Life, which explores how numeracy can help us understand topics ranging from climate change and cryptocurrency to artificial intelligence. A 3M Teaching Fellow, Fields Institute Fellow, and Canadian Mathematical Society Fellow, he is widely recognized for his contributions to mathematics education.
