Fall 2022

We are excited to continue another year of learning together in the Mathematics Learning Research Group (MLRG). As in previous years, we want to create a space where graduate students can share their work, solicit feedback on new ideas, rehearse upcoming presentations, and hear from faculty members about their work process. Our hope is that MLRG is a place not only to share our work that is farther along, but also to share ideas that are "half-baked" and still developing. Work at all stages of "done-ness" is welcome here!

Continuing with what we did last year, we'd like to emphasize both the R(esearch) but also the L(earning) in MLRG. We'll plan to meet 2x per month, with one meeting focusing on people sharing research and the other meeting focusing on professional development & learning (including workshops as well as discussions with professors about topics such as CVs, reviews, etc.). 

Our tentative meeting times will be from 11:30 am - 1 pm Eastern Time on the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month (see below for the schedule). Because this is the lunch hour, we encourage everyone to bring their lunches. Snacks will also be provided. We will be meeting in Wells C716, the Connected Mathematics Project conference room/library. To get here, take the elevators in the C-wing of Wells Hall up to the 7th floor and then head down the left hallway. The room will be on the right just before the end of the hallway.

You can also join us virtually on Zoom if you can't make it in person:
