| Title of Talk | Math Culture Points at Coe |
| Abstract | Coe has been using a "Math Culture Points" system for several years now to encourage and reward students for relevant activities outside of class, inspired by the article "Culture Points: Engaging Students outside the Classroom" by Fraboni and Hartshorn in PRIMUS v17.
