II INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE "Mathematical Transgressions" March 15-19, 2015 Pedagogical University of Cracow, Poland First Announcement The Organizing Committee is pleased to invite you to participate in the II Interdisciplinary Scientific Conference MATHEMATICAL TRANSGRESSIONS. The conference will take place in Cracow, Poland, from Sunday 15 March to Thursday 19 March 2015. This meeting is addressed to scientists and teachers who find multidimensional approach towards mathematics education valuable and necessary. We believe that in order to understand student's school situation and provide effective school training one has to consider many distinct points of view. For this reason educators of mathematics, mathematicians, pedagogues, psychologists and philosophers are invited to participate in the conference. We invite scientists involved in research on mathematics education from Poland and abroad, Europe, America and all over the world, to share their experience and knowledge. The aim of the conference is to cross the boundaries of mathematics and its education and to foster international collaboration between scientists representing seemingly distant fields of knowledge. Topics covered by the Conference Sessions include: 1. Didactics of mathematics as a scientific discipline in statu nascendi. 2. Psychology of mathematics. Psychological aspects of learning mathematics. 3. Philosophy of mathematics: Platonism versus problem solving view. 4. The relationship between theory and practice in mathematics education. 5. Underachievement Syndrome in learning mathematics. 6. A trap of didactical contract. 7. Teaching mathematics in 21st century: new methods, new objectives and new content.
