This book celebrates the 15th anniversary of the bi-annual
symposium series Mathematics and its Connections to the Arts and
Sciences (MACAS), which was first held in 2005 following the
continued collaboration of an international group of researchers
from ICME Topic Study Group 21. The MACAS-conferences bring
together scientists and educators who are interested in the
connection between mathematics, arts and science in educational
curriculum, while emphasizing on, as well as researching about, the
role of mathematics. By pooling together these different approaches
and viewpoints between mathematics, arts and sciences, this book
reveals possible synergies and paths for collaborations. In view of
the challenges of the 21st century, a modern approach to education
with a focus on multi- and interdisciplinarity is more important
than ever. The role of mathematics assumes a key role in this
approach as it is connected to all other disciplines, such as STEM
education, physics, chemistry, biology, aesthetics and language,
and can serve as a bridge between them. This book discusses,
amongst others, the curricular approaches to integrate mathematics
and other disciplines, the importance of mathematical modelling and
the interdisciplinarity ways for learning and studying of
mathematics, as well as the intercultural dimensions of mathematics
and mathematics in the digital era. All topics will be presented
from very different perspectives and regarding very different
contexts, including digitization, culture and sustainability. This
unique collection will serve as a very valuable and compact source
for all above mentioned scientists and educators, as well as for
use in advanced teacher education courses.
