The Carnival of Mathematics continues to engage math enthusiasts with its latest February 2025 edition, now available at Flying Colours Maths. The Carnival rounds up blog posts from all over the internet. This is the 237th edition. Playful Math celebrated its sweet sixteen with the 179th edition of their carnival, originally called Math Teachers at Play, the first carnival was published in February 2009. Playful Math Carnival offers a smorgasbord of delectable tidbits of mathy fun, a free online magazine devoted to learning, teaching, and playing around with math from preschool to high school.
DEA SCUOLA, in collaboration with MaddMaths! and with the patronage of the CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, is organizing a conference for mathematics teachers of secondary schools. The conference aims to motivate, involve, and entertain with mathematics, covering topics such as neuroscience and mathematical learning, innovative teaching strategies, and the use of AI in mathematics education.

The American Mathematical Society (AMS) is actively advocating for mathematics, particularly concerning the National Science Foundation (NSF). The AMS has started a page to coordinate support for professional mathematics, focusing on executive orders impacting the NSF. Recently, the NSF has seen significant changes, including the firing of 168 employees, which raises concerns about the potential impact on quantum funding and artificial intelligence research. These layoffs, occurring in response to a presidential executive order aimed at reducing the federal workforce, have affected both probationary employees and part-time experts in physics-related fields.
The AMS provides tools for the mathematical community to engage with government representatives, ensuring that the voices of mathematicians are heard in policy discussions. The AMS also actively supports mathematics on a global stage, as demonstrated by the US team earning third place at the 2025 Romanian Master of Mathematics, a challenging international high school mathematics competition, with team members earning individual awards. Penn State also rose in the NSF Higher Education Research and Development rankings. The AMS is dedicated to advancing research and connecting the diverse global mathematical community through publications, meetings and conferences, MathSciNet, professional services, advocacy, and awareness programs.
