Thought some of you might be interested in this working conference. The
product of the conference should prove of value to the future of
mathematics teaching with technology (including handheld technology such as
the TI-89).

CSME'99
C A L L F O R P A P E R S
Computer-Supported Mathematical Education
(Didactic, Mathematical, and Software Technologic Aspects)
===============================================================
August 23-25, 1999
Castle of Hagenberg, Austria
---------------------------------------------------------------
(Organized by
ACDCA - Austrian Center for Didactics of Computer Algebra
and RISC - Research Institute for Symbolic Computation)
---------------------------------------------------------------
Scope
-----
This conference is a forum for papers on computer-supported
mathematical education and emphasizes research and experimental
work that tries to bring together and integrate the didactic,
mathematical, and software technologic aspect of the subject.
The conference is the fifth in a sequence of conferences on
computer-supported mathematical education initiated by ACDCA
(Krems 1992, Krems 1993, Honolulu 1995, Kungsbaker 1997). The
aim of these conferences is twofold:
* The enormous possibilities of the new computer-based media
on the improvement and innovation of teaching and learning
mathematics should be promoted.
* The enormous expertise of teachers and students about the
math teaching and learning process should be fully integrated
into the development of new computer-based media.
The fifth conference in the series prefers contributions that
consider both aims in a balanced way.
Typical topics in the scope of the conference:
* report about successful classroom experiments using mathematical
software systems
* the impact of math system design on mathematical thinking and
problem solving
* new ways of math teaching and learning on the basis of the new
media
* the use of network software for organizing new forms of math
teaching and studying
* interactive and individualized generation of math learning
material by the student
* new algorithmic mathematics particularly suitable for
computer-based learning
* improvements in the design of math software systems based on
didactical experience
* new software tools for facilitating the development of math
teaching material
* new software tools for the interaction of math teachers and
students over the net
* new software for computer-supported math tutoring and evaluation
* examples of successful, new computer-based math texts, lectures,
training units etc.
All these subjects are considered for secondary as well as for
university level.
Conference venue
----------------
The international conference "Computer Supported Mathematic Education"
is organized by the Research Institute for Symbolic Computation
(RISC) of the Johannes Kepler University Linz. The conference
will be held in the Castle of Hagenberg, the home of RISC.
Hagenberg is located about 25km North-East from Linz, Austria.
Contributed Papers

Authors are invited to submit full papers (maximum 12 pages)
to the organizers by November 30, 1998. All submission should
be made in electronic form.
The submissions for CSME'99 are handled preferably via web or
email. To use the web, carefully fill out the form available
from the site of the conference:

using Netscape 2.0 or later.
If you do not have access to a browser, you can send an e-mail
message to the conference:
To: CSME99-submit@risc.uni-linz.ac.at
Subject: CSME'99 submission form
The body of the message will contain the following information:
TITLE: Fill in the title of your paper.
AUTHORS: firstname lastname, ..., firstname lastname
of all authors.
AUTHOR: Name of the corresponding author.
ADDRESS: One or more lines containing the complete.
ground address of the corresponding author.
EMAIL: E-mail address of the corresponding author.
PHONE: Phone number of the corresponding author.
FAX: Fax number of the corresponding author.
ABSTRACT: Text-only abstract of your paper.
Please, try not to use TeX commands because the abstract
will be put as plain text in a web page.
FILE:
The PS file containing your submission starting on a new line.
Do not gzip, compress or uuencode. Just send the plain PS file.
The file must conform the PS-2 standard so that it will print

Important dates
---------------
November 30, 1998: Deadline for the submision of papers.
January 31, 1998: Decision about papers and notification
of authors.
April 15, 1999: Deadline for camera-ready papers.
August 23-25, 1999: Conference.
Immediately after the "Computer-Supported Mathematical Education"
conference, RISC will host the "International Mathematica Symposium"
in the Castle of Hagenberg (August 26-31, 1999) so that synergy
effects can develop between the two conferences.
Other satellite workshops before, during, and after these two
conferences in related areas will be planned. For example, we plan
to organize the "Third International Theorema Workshop" (Theorem
Proving based on Computer Algebra) at RISC at the same time period.
If you want to submit a proposal for a satellite workshop, please
write to
