Summary: Discussion on collection of didactic materials for Dynamat E - course and E - book: some of initial topics involved. How to collect materials? - contact teachers which whom we already have a net, about main ideas that we discussed earlier, and try to look if such materials exist, also we have some examples from Math2Earth project; not of course the materials themselves, but ideas. Some ideas discussed during the discussion: GPS (DK partner), some geometric problems treated with Dynamic ICT(IT), it is problematic to use ICT formally(BG) , "funny errors with ICT"(IT), discuss fractals is reasonable (BG), discussion on the meaning of "dynamic" approach.
Summary of decisions:- Target groups is teachers and ultimately school students
- Materials not to be restricted to visualisation and/or geometry, "dynamic" will be taken in a general meaning
- E-Learning course may be not large scale, but locally tested out
- E-book will be mainly existing on homepage
- SK team: prepare draft of homepage until Vienna meeting
- IT team: create database to upload financial and other reports
- Next meeting in Vienna, Austria, April 27 – May 1
- Meeting after that in Reykjavik, Iceland, dates to be decided until Feb-Mar
- Materials to be prepared in raw format until Vienna meeting, then presentation of it by each team at Vienna meeting
- Bilateral contracts to be prepared, funds to be transferred (who – IT
