Fields Institute Mathematics Education Forum
Dr. Mamolo was appointed and has served Fields MathEd Forum steering committee since 2012, and served a two-year term as co-chair (2018-2020). The Fields MathEd Forum promotes discussion of issues in mathematics education at all levels, with special emphasis on education in the Province of Ontario. The Forum's mandate is to foster the development of new ideas, methodologies and materials with respect to possible changes that could improve education in mathematics, and to work for the implementation of such changes.

• Problem and Inquiry Based Learning (EDUC 4703U)
  This course introduces an approach to teaching that focuses on the value of learning from real and meaningful activities. Students will learn to find and structure activities around the kind of ill-defined problems that face professionals in their work and they will learn to use these activities as the basis for promoting self-directed inquiry.
