This report highlights the Centre’s accomplishments for 2011. This year we collectively produced over 175 publications and presentations, and we currently hold over $2,700,123.00 in research funding. As a Centre, we continue to make an impact on mathematics, science and technology-related education research and practice, in and outside of schools. Within OISE, we strive for excellence in our contributions to initial teacher education and to graduate education, and we continue to foster connections to SMT educators across the university.

As a research centre located within the Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, we organize a variety of activities designed to support our instructors and students, in both teaching and research. Our seminars, newsletter and graduate student events are a way of building and maintaining our small community. Furthermore, the Centre is the proud home of the internationally regarded Canadian Journal for Science, Mathematics and Technology Education.

None of our work would be possible without the expertise and assistance of our administrative assistants. In 2011, we were supported by Michael Tan, Celia West, and Cheryl Clarke. I extend my thanks to them for all that they have done.

Centre Activities Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics, and Technology Education (CJSMTE) CJSMTE, established in 2000, is Canada’s first academic journal in this field. Originally co-edited by Derek Hodson and Gila Hanna, the Journal has an editorial board of 45 internationally prominent educators and a rigorous review policy. Published quarterly, it includes articles in English and in French. Currently edited by Professor John Wallace, the journal provides an international forum for the publication of original articles written in a variety of styles, including research investigations using experimental, qualitative, ethnographic, historical, philosophical, or case study approaches; critical reviews of the literature; policy perspectives and position papers; curriculum arguments; and discussion of issues in teacher education. Research Seminars The Centre sponsors research seminars that bring together faculty, graduate students, visiting scholars and practitioners from the field of science, mathematics and technology education to present their research, as well as highlight current trends in the field. This contributes greatly to the vibrancy of the Centre. Seminar topics from 2011 included:

- Dr. Aaron Price: Rasch Analysis of Scientific Literacy in a Citizen Science Project (April 21, 2011) - Dr. Ruhama Evan: Teaching the Same Probability Syllabus in Classes of Different Levels (September 26,

2011) - Dr. Lyn Carter: Globalization and Science Education (September 29, 2011) - Dr. Phil Clarkson: Social Justice Issues and Mathematics Education (September 29, 2011) - Dr. Clare Kosnik, Lydia Menna (CTL Ph.D. Candidate) and Dr. Shawn Bullock: It is not so simple to do Web

2.0: A study of integration of technology into literacy methods courses (November 25, 2011) Student Steering Committee The SMT Director encouraged an increased level of graduate student participation in SMT with the development of a Student Steering Committee. This committee is composed of Master’s and Doctorate students who are supervised by SMT faculty members. Members of the Student Steering Committee attend and participate in SMT Centre meetings, hold student-based seminars and workshops for their colleagues assist in disseminating SMT-related information to the broader community, and help arrange SMT events. SMT Newsletter The Centre published a Fall 2011 and a Spring 2012 newsletter highlighting faculty and graduate students’ activities, research and development initiatives, conference presentations and publications. It is a forum for faculty and graduate students to communicate, share and disseminate their work within OISE and the larger U of T community. The newsletter is published in hard copy, and is also made available electronically through the SMT website. The SMT Newsletter is compiled and edited by the SMT Administrative Assistant (in Fall 2011, by Celia West and in Spring 2012, by Cheryl Clarke).
