AMESA KZN REGIONAL CONFERENCE 2018
Theme: Teaching Mathematics for Understanding
Mathematics has been and will continue to be
the focus of concern in internationally and this
include South Africa. But despite the
endeavors of various stakeholders, we are still
not achieving the results we expect. Countries
with limited education budgets such as
Botswana, are still achieving greater success in
school mathematics. The latter is confirmed by
2015 TIMSS global rankings where South
Africa was the second last. It is time that we
begin to ask ourselves serious introspective
questions. What are we doing right thus far?
What do we still need to improve? Perhaps it is
only through concerted effort and dedication
that we will begin to show some remarkable
improvement. Conference Chair: Sthembiso Khanyile 0833299318

The AMESA KZN provincial committee gobab@ukzn.ac.za
invites you to their annual one day conference.
We are hoping that through delegates’ DATE: 19 MAY 2018
interaction with other researchers we will
begin to understand some of the problems that
are crippling our education system. Our VENUE: UKZN – EDGEWOOD CAMPUS
conference theme is aptly titled: Teaching
Mathematics for Understanding. The TIME: 08:00—17:00
conference will cater for primary and
secondary school teachers and will showcase
current research being conducted in SA. REGISTRATION: 07:30
