Dear Colleagues,

I attach as a formatted rtf file a short announcement about our forthcoming
conference on New Ideas in Mathematics Education, to be held in Palm Cove,
Tropical North Queensland from August 19-24th, 2001, and also the First
Announcement.

This will be the third of our Project Conferences, following our very
successful conferences in Cairo, Egypt 1999 and in Amman, Jordan in November
2000, from which I have just returned.

I hope you will be interested in attending, it promises to be an important
and enjoyable event!

We would be most grateful if you are also able to place this announcement in
any journal or newsletter or mathematics education list that you have
contacts with!

Very best wishes and thanks,
Alan
