To all the potential contributors to the ICMI Study 23:

 

The IPC of the ICMI Study 23 has received kind requests to postpone the deadline, due to the many International Conferences held in different parts of the world in July and August and the coincidence of the deadline of CERME 9 (September 15). Hence the IPC has decided to postpone the deadline to October 15.
