For those of you who teach this may sound so familiar and, perhaps, painful as well as a pretty memory. Many times we come along a student who needs more, who understands more and (almost) consequently suffers more during class or when he has to show and explain his/her work. The actual subject of the congress is about Mathematics for the 'different' students. Still I don't see how a 'special' person is different from another, when it comes down to teaching him/her. So I asked for art, sports or other recreation-need-nature call-or what ever, to be included in the subjects of this scientific gathering. I understand that for most of you Bulgaria is another planet. Still, I ask you to visit the site of the congress: http://www.cmeegs3.rousse.bg/ In any case, I'd be happy to present any paper relevant. The details are fully explained in the site. I would love to see you all there...in any form! Regards, Dimitris -------------------- End of Baren Digest V22 #2133 *****************************
