*******************
6th CREATIVE MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES COMMUNICATION (CMSC'22)
University of Bergen, Norway from 20-23 April 2022
website: cmsc-uib.org NO REGISTRATION FEE
*****************
Join scientists, researchers, teachers and artists in developing new
ways of communicating mathematical and computational thinking, including
computing activities across the curriculum, at every level. We welcome
contributions in art forms such as dance, art, theatre, music, story ...
many ways to communicate science to the public.
The CMSC conference series has three aims.
(1) To create new ways of communicating computational thinking,
modelling, and algorithms and producing new activities with the
philosophy of "Computer Science Unplugged!"
(2) To encourage researchers to provide open problems from their area
that are accessible to authentic engagement by kids, and to explore ways
of mentoring their work.
(3) To CELEBRATE when outreach results in greater progress in science.
Outreach can be a two-way street.
We also seek new ways to show the open, unsolved problems that
researchers are pursuing, even when they are beyond what the student is
currently able to work on.
We would be delighted to have you come to CMSC'22 and to share your
insights and experiences and experiments.
• Wednesday 20 April. Conference begins. Buses depart the University of
Bergen at 8:00 am to go to the Solstrand Hotel for CMSC on
Wednesday/Thursday, with the Banquet at the Solstrand Hotel on Wednesday
night.
• Thursday 21 April. Conference continues on a fjord trip back to the
University of Bergen (UiB).
• Friday 22 April. PARAMETERIZED COMPLEXITY research workshop at UiB.
Lunch with the Algorithms Group. Materials and space for ongoing
discussions and preparing activities for the Festival. An evening of
Mathematical Theatre, live performances.
• Saturday 23 April. All -Bergen Community Science Festival,
family-friendly activities, good food, science, technology and fun for
all ages. The CMSC participants will share some of the activities we
create.
