  • Abstract Submission

    The abstract submission link for the 2025 M-CTRAS Conference is available through the Indico platform. We encourage all interested participants to submit their abstracts for consideration.

    The proposed theme, "Inspiring Research on Mathematics Classroom Resources", aims to bring together researchers and educators to share research findings, best practices, and innovative resources in mathematics instruction. Through this conference, we aim to foster collaboration among researchers, educators, practitioners, and policymakers to enhance mathematics instruction for all students. The subthemes are as follows:

    1. Educational Materials and Resources (including platforms and applications) in Mathematics Classrooms
    2. Artificial Intelligence and Other Emerging Technologies in Mathematics Classrooms
    3. Mathematics Teaching Resources in Open and Distance e-Learning

    Contributions related to the listed subthemes are encouraged, but submissions on other relevant topics are also welcome. Submissions may include research projects, reports, works in progress, or proposals. We welcome submissions for both oral and poster presentations.
