This Teacher Enrichment Workshop (TEW) aims to equip college and university mathematics teachers with the necessary knowledge, resources, and skills to effectively educate students in the basic subjects they teach. In this workshop, some aspects of analytic number theory and basic probability theory will be discussed. Furthermore, essential applications of probability theory/methods in number theory will be addressed. This workshop is for college/university teachers in and around Kerala. Along with lecture sessions, discussion sessions will be there to clear the doubts of the participants.

Please note that TEW is meant only for local college teachers. The lectures in this workshop cover specific topics that are relevant to the teachers' classroom instructions. The usual length of the TEW is 5/6 days. An important component of this program is the discussion hour during which the teachers will have opportunities to get their doubts cleared.
