The similarity comes from the kinds of phen omena which are studied\, from innovative task design\, over the descripti ve study of teaching episodes and curricula\, to institutional conditions and constraints – all pertaining to the teaching and learning of mathema tics. Here\, the Anthropological Theory of the Didactic (ATD) offers speci fic tools for a variety of purposes\, from the modelling of specific mathe matical practices and theories concerned\, to the interrelated levels of d idactic co-determination ranging from subjects to civilizations. At the sa me time\, Universities offer particular conditions and constraints\, such as the co-habitation of scientific research and teaching\, and the simulta neous task of teaching mathematics to very diverse populations\, including (massively) students for whom mathematics is just a smaller part of their current university curriculum and their future professional aspirations\; moreover\, the teaching tasks range from filling in gaps in students’ p re-university learning of mathematics to the teaching of highly advanced s ubjects. University mathematics teaching thus represents a profession that involves and requires rather specific and specialized knowledge on the pa rt of the teacher. How are these needs currently attended to? How can the Didactics of University Mathematics interact with the preparation and prac tice of teachers\, given current and future institutional conditions and c onstraints? In particular\, how can teaching and research in University Ma thematics interact? In our talk\, we will attend to these questions (natur ally\, pertaining both to the present and the future of the profession) ba sed on ongoing and recent research done within the framework of ATD.\n\nTh e seminar can also be attended at Niels Bohr Building\, room 0H154\, Unive rsity of Copenhagen.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/DidMat/1/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
