            The abstract follows: "Mathematical flexibility is increasingly recognized as an important
            interest for both researchers and practitioners in mathematics education. Flexibility can 
            as a learner’s willingness to change strategies based on the particular problem-solving co

            goals. In this talk, I first provide an introduction to flexibility. I then explore differ
            flexibility has been assessed, highlighting successes and challenges in the various forms 
            then present recent empirical research results on flexibility, and I conclude by suggestin

            areas for future research on flexibility."


            Jon R. Star works as a Professor of Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
            is in mathematics education at the level of secondary school, particularly around flexibil
            solving. He collaborates with colleagues at universities in the U.S. and other countries. 

            cooperating with Lukáš Vízek during his Fulbright fellowship at Harvard University.
