WikiMathCom is still in BETA, and not yet suitable for public use.

Welcome to WikiMathCom, a wiki aimed to collect all projects and resources about math communication, such as math museums, exhibits, books, films, fairs, performances, etc.

WikiMathCom is a project from IMAGINARY, as part of its actions towards the math outreach community.


What is the goal of WikiMathCom?

The main goal is to collect all projects on math communication worldwide, structured and organized for the use of professionals of math dissemination (although it is public and open to any enthusiast).

One purpose of this collection is to encourage the interaction and collaboration between different projects. It can serve to compare and establish relations (e.g. first authorship of an exhibit and derivated exhibits, tracing back ideas, comparing different approaches on the same topic, etc). This way, a second purpose is to be a base for research in didactics and in science communication.

Structure

A preliminary container of stuff to add to WikiMathCom is on the List of projects.
