Sandra Wieser and Daniela Steflitsch took part again this year in the Math Education Young Researcher Meeting As a lot has happened at MatheConnect over the past year, the two were able to share their first exciting research findings with colleagues from Austria. In their presentation entitled “Mathematics and society – (no) connection? Students' perceptions of the link between mathematics and social issues” they presented the topics in which students found it particularly easy to recognize connections between mathematics and society, and the strategies they used when they found these connections difficult. As soon as our first article on this topic is published, we will of course let you know—stay tuned!
