The MAA offers various professional development resources for mathematics educators and a range of publications, journals, and other materials to support effective math education.
Conferences and Events
The MAA is proud to host various events throughout the year that explore a variety of topics and provide opportunities to deepen your knowledge, advance your career, and connect you with the math community.
Virtual Programming
Inspired by our community, MAA Virtual Programming offers online workshops and training geared towards college math faculty. Join us to connect, share ideas, and explore trending topics in mathematics.
Project NExT
The Mathematical Association of America's (MAA) Project NExT (New Experiences in Teaching) program is designed to support new PhDs in mathematics as they begin their careers.
OPEN Math
The OPEN Math or Online Professional Enhancement and Capacity Building for Instructional Practices in Undergraduate Mathematics project is improving math instruction throughout the country by providing high-quality online professional development workshops around themes of active learning tailored to higher education math faculty through a five-year, $1.6 million grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation to understand effective practices in delivering online teaching and learning-focused professional development.
CoMinds
The MAA CoMInDS program provides instructional materials and guidance to mathematics departments as they establish or revise their graduate student professional development programs. Our summer workshops help faculty learn how to build a successful program, become familiar with relevant research findings, and give participants access to a large collection of lessons, activities, and assignments to use at their institutions.
Common Vision Reports
The Common Vision project has brought together leaders from five professional associations in the mathematical sciences – AMATYC, AMS, ASA, MAA, and SIAM – to collectively consider undergraduate mathematics curricula and ways to improve education in the mathematical sciences.
Teaching Awards and Recognition
The MAA Awards are presented each year to acknowledge our members' remarkable contributions to the MAA community and the field of mathematics. The award ceremony, held at MathFest, is a joyful celebration of our diverse and dynamic community and the incredible talent shaping the future of math.
