We thank all the authors for their contributions and hope that the prceedings will support further development within the field of special needs education in mathematics.
The Nordic Research network on Special Needs Education in Mathematics (NORSMA) was established in 2003 by professionals working within the fields of mathematics and special needs education. The network has held conferences every other year in the Nordic countries focusing on research on teaching students with difficulties in learning mathematics.
