VCTM Conference 2025 Call for Proposals

18 Sep 2024 12:48 PM | Steven Ushakov (Administrator)

We at VCTM believe in building an inclusive math community of students and educators through conversation, shared resources around evidence-based practices, and connections throughout Vermont and beyond.

VCTM will be hosting its annual spring conference on Friday March 21, 2025 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at St. Michael’s College in Colchester, VT. This year's conference theme is Powerful Mathematics. Mathematical power is the know-how and confidence to use math to inform decisions and navigate the demands of daily life – whether personal, professional or civic. Educators can build each of their student’s mathematical power in many ways such as choosing a powerful mathematical curriculum, using evidence-based instruction and assessment or promoting equity and inclusion. 

Presentations should align with at least one of the following strands: Powerful Mathematical Content, Evidence-Based Instruction and Assessment, or Equity and Inclusion. 

Proposals are being accepted through Google Forms:

forms.gle/ZiyJUfxSXoapbxEV8


Proposals are due on October 31, 2024 and final decisions will be made before December 15, 2024. You may submit more than one proposal.

If your proposal is chosen, then the lead presenter's conference fees will be paid.

Please specify who the lead presenter is if there is more than one presenter. All presentations will be given a 50 minute time slot. 

Your proposal will be anonymously critiqued using the following guidelines:

  1. The objectives of the proposal clearly state what the participants will learn and be able to do.
  2. The stated objectives are appropriate to the grade level and content area.
  3. The stated objectives will build on participants' mathematical content and/or pedagogical knowledge.
  4. The description (and title) of the presentation is clearly described.
  5. The description states there will be mathematical content and/or pedagogical knowledge.
  6. The activities described are appropriate for the grade band and targeted audience.
  7. The proposal and objective align with the theme of the conference.
