In science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), the development of knowledge is based in mathematical modelling processes that balance elements of theory, scientific computation, and experimentation, both epistemologically and cognitively. However, many STEM education curricula and learning environments still do not manifest this range of characteristics, particularly in what concerns the integration of computational knowledge and cognition in the learning-teaching processes, despite years of sustained recommendations supported by scientific evidence.
This Symposium is open to all interested in proposing contributions to improve this situation.
Topics include but are not limited to:
- STEM knowledge development and modelling paths.
- Conceptual understanding, mathematical reasoning and problem-solving.
- New approaches, curricula, or learning-teaching sequences.
- Interactive learning-teaching environments.
- ICT, multimedia, scientific computation and AI.
- Teacher training and professional development.
Contributing papers should be submitted by email to the Symposium Organizer until July 5, 2026 (see guidelines at https://icnaam.org/papers/). Acceptance notices will be scheduled for July 26, 2026.
