About OML:
Every July/August, more than a hundred Oregon math educators who are passionate about teaching mathematics gather at the Oregon Math Leaders Conference at Linfield College in McMinnville. The 2020 OML conference was cancelled due to COVID and restrictions on gatherings. The 2021 Conference will also be held virtually due to continued and changing COVID restrictions.

OML has three goals:
This "math camp" will help you grow as a math educator, and you'll also have lots of fun meeting others from all over our state.
What workshops and talks are included?
Check back later for a list of OML sessions.
Once we have a tentative schedule, check back here (subject to possible changes).
We are looking forward to engaging keynote speakers as well as engaging sessions provided by Mathematics Educators!

Oregon Department of Education (ODE) math curriculum specialist Mark Freed and Andy Byerley ODE assessment specialist will address state and national trends, provide updates on opportunities statewide to become involved at a local level, and respond to your questions and comments. You will be able to express your concerns and hear how decisions are being made or what's on the table and how to provide your input. They will be addressing elementary and secondary concerns separately, so everyone will get the focused information they need.
What does the conference cost?
OCTM members: $50
Non-OCTM members: $75
