Conference Registration

For this conference, the board of the ACMS has decided to provide free conference registration for new ACMS conference participants.
Give the name of the conference participant you are accompanying.
During the conference, we will hold simultaneous excursions to Huntington Gardens or the Norton Simon Museum. Transportation expenses and admission fees are covered within the conference registration. Please indicate your choice of excursion below.

Pre-Conference Workshops

Pre-conference workshops will be held prior to the start of the conference, from the morning of Tuesday, May 31st until early afternoon on Wednesday, June 1st. If registering for a pre-conference workshop, be sure to select appropriate lodging and meal plans below.

Workshop 1: Mathematics in Context: its History, Philosophy, and Connections with the Christian Faith (organizers: Bob Brabenec, Russell Howell, and Richard Stout)

Description: The ACMS was founded in part to facilitate the discussion of issues related to the integration of faith and learning in mathematics courses. Such a task seems to require some knowledge of the foundational and philosophical issues in mathematics, as well as a sense of the historical background that generated them. This workshop is designed to introduce topics that could be used throughout the curriculum, but are generally not a part of most undergraduate or graduate programs. The first day will focus on historical topics, primarily from the 18th and 19th centuries (e.g., the rise of axiomatization, introduction of new geometries, development of complex numbers, work of Cantor and set theory). The second day will explore philosophical issues, such as the implications of Godel’s theorems, a summary of classical philosophies of mathematics, and a discussion of current issues in the philosophy of mathematics. No prior background in these topics is assumed.

Workshop 2: Integrating Ethics into Your Courses (organizers: Lori Carter, Catherine Crockett, Stacy De Ruiter, Randall Pruim)

Description: Are you struggling to find ways to naturally integrate your faith into your teaching? Would you like to become part of a project that will impact students well into their careers? The ongoing Integrated Ethics Labs project provides professor- and student- friendly ethics labs that can be integrated into computer science, data science and statistics courses throughout multi-year programs. We believe, as have others before us, that ethics have become an increasingly important part of the undergraduate education of students in these disciplines. We also believe that Christians should be at the forefront of this movement. In this workshop, participants will:
  • be introduced to the existing materials available at integratedethicslabs.org;
  • experience several of the ethics labs that tie ethics directly to the subject matter;
  • get tips on how to include ethics labs in a course or throughout a program;
  • adapt and/or create ethics labs to be used in their own courses;
  • practice presenting a lab and receive feedback;
  • learn how to get involved in the Integrated Ethics Labs project.
Cancelled: Workshop 3: Professional Development (organizer: Maria Zack)
