The 12th Asian Technology Conference in Mathematics (ATCM 2007)
Taipei, Taiwan - The ATCM 2007 is an international conference that will continue addressing technology-based issues in all Mathematical Sciences.
Conference Theme
"Making Mathematics Fun, Accessible and Challenging through Technology"
The ATCM 2007 is an international conference that will continue addressing technology-based issues in all Mathematical Sciences. Thanks to advanced technological tools such as computer algebra systems (CAS), interactive and dynamic geometry, and hand-held devices, the effectiveness of our teaching and learning, and the horizon of our research in mathematics and its applications continue to grow rapidly. The aim of this conference is to provide a forum for educators, researchers, teachers and experts in exchanging information regarding enhancing technology to enrich mathematics learning, teaching and research at all levels. English is the official language of the conference.
