Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter mathematical activities this year:
1) Our Florida Epsilon Chapter of PME Outstanding Scholars of 2013 were Sarah Croome and Jamie Sprecher. 2) Dr. Alexander Anderson, of the Moffitt Cancer Center, was the keynote speaker at the 3013 Induction Banquet. His presentation was titled “Integrated Mathematical Oncology”.
Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2013 PME national meeting at MathFest in Hartford, Connecticut?
Do you have any news about current students or recent graduates? For example, scholarships or other awards, acceptances to graduate school, paper presentations at conferences.
If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results.
