After things settled down, she wanted to try something new and is now active in cheerleading. One of her biggest hobbies is talking, and now public speaking has become a new playground for her. In the future, she wants to study law or psychology. She sometimes wonders if her life purpose is just to be a sidekick, but she believes that everyone can be their own hero.

Iwan Pranoto

Professor of Mathematics
Iwan Pranoto, Ph.D., is a professor of mathematics at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB). His experience of mathematics includes more than twenty five years of expertise in mathematics education, spreading from primary to university levels. Besides mathematical sciences, at present, he teaches courses in the master of mathematics for teachers program at ITB. He obtained his undergraduate degree in mathematics from ITB and his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Toronto, Canada. He will uncover the paradox in our classrooms: learning, meant to spark curiosity, is seen as a burden. Let’s rediscover learning not as pressure, but as enjoyment. Not punishment, but thrill. This is a heroic task we’ve forgotten. Professor Iwan Pranoto will be one of the speakers at the TEDxAvicenna Cinere School Pre Event on May 24th, 2025.
