This submission contains the Proceedings of the 2013 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Mathematics Education Study Group (CMESG), held at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario. The CMESG is a group of mathematicians and mathematics educators who meet annually to discuss mathematics education issues at all levels of learning. The aims of the Study Group are: to advance education by organizing and coordinating national conferences and seminars to study and improve the theories of the study of mathematics or any other aspects of mathematics education in Canada at all levels; and to undertake research in mathematics education and to disseminate the results of this research. These proceedings include plenary lectures, working group reports, topic session descriptions, new PhD reports, and summaries of ad hoc and poster sessions. Papers include: (1) On the Relationships Between Mathematical Creativity, Excellence and Giftedness (Roza Leikin); (2) Are We Teaching Roman Numerals in a Digital Age? (Bill Ralph); (3) Through a CMESG Looking Glass (Eric Muller); (4) MOOCs and Online Mathematics Teaching and Learning (George Gadanidis and Philippe R.
