We are pleased to announce the 2023 Annual Conference of the International Society for the Design and Development of Education (ISDDE). This conference will be held October 16-19 at Boston University in Boston, Massachusetts. It is an opportunity for educational designers of science, mathematics, engineering, and technology to share their work and learn from each other. This conference attracts designers from pre-K to post-secondary education from different countries from around the world.

The Program in Mathematics Education sponsors a Mathematics Education Colloquium Series during the academic year. This series consists of talks about research in mathematics education by MSU faculty members and scholars from other institutions in the United States and abroad. 

You are invited to the CREATE seminar space on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, at noon to welcome Dr. Christina Krist from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. 

Dr. Krist's research pairs a philosophical question with a design-oriented one: what does humanistic science education (research) look like? And how can we design to move science education (research) toward those visions?

We would love to see you in person, but a Zoom option is being offered (registration required:
