Mathematics and Education in an AI Era Cognitive Science, Technological, and Semiotic Perspectives

Dragana Martinovic is a Professor Emerita at the Faculty of Education, University of Windsor. She is a Fellow of the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences and served as the founding and former Co-Director of the Fields Centre for Mathematics Education until 2024. Additionally, she is a founding and current Co-Editor of the Springer book series, Mathematics Education in the Digital Era. Dragana is involved in several editorial roles, serving on the Editorial Boards of Brill’s Studies in Mathematics in the Arts and Humanities book series, Springer’s Mathematics in Mind book series, as well as journals such as Participatory Educational Research (PER) and Semiotica. She also chairs the GeoGebra Institute of Canada (GIC-IGC).

Dragana’s research focuses on the knowledge required for teaching mathematics, the ways in which technology can enhance mathematics teaching and learning, and the epistemologies of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in relation to teacher and K–12 education.

Marcel Danesi is Professor Emeritus of Anthropology at the University of Toronto. He has written extensively on the relation between mathematics and symbol systems, including how puzzles and problems in mathematics are part of a more general dialectic frame of mind for grasping the nature of reality. Among his works in the field are Language and Mathematics (2018) and Ahmes’ Legacy (2020). He also founded the CogSci Network at the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences, which consists of internationally renowned researchers in the field of cognitive mathematics.
