Why are we calling it 5OSME PLUS!? In addition to the 5th international conference on origami in science, mathematics and education (5OSME; July 13-15, 2010), there will be
- a folding convention (PLUS!: 15-17 July 2010),
- an origami exhibition (14-17 July 2010),
- a cross-country collaborative student origami building project,
- two viewings of Between the Folds,
- opportunities to visit many sights in Singapore as well as in neighboring Malaysia and Thailand,
- an eclectic and infinite array of delicious foods that are very reasonably priced!, and
- more shopping malls than you can count!
We have an exciting lineup of presentations from many countries for 5OSME (list of accepted abstract titles will be uploaded to the 5OSME website soon), ranging from the frontiers of research to creative fields in design!
The 5OSME website contains lodging information and forms for teaching and volunteering.
We recently learned that 5OSME PLUS! has been selected by the International Conference Support Program to receive 10% discount for conference participants who make hotel reservations through http://www.hotelscombined.com/Conference_Support. Please read the information carefully. To receive your 10% rebate, the name on your reservation receipt must match the name registered at the conference.
Early bird registration for 5OSME PLUS! is open through March 1, 2010. Registration price increases on March 2, 2010.
Should you have any questions/comments/suggestions, please feel free to contact 5osme.queries@gmail.com.
I will be leading a small group of individuals (maximum number of 20) to visit schools the week of 19 July 2010. Please contact me if you are interested.
We look forward to seeing you in Singapore in July!
Best regards,
The 5OSME Organizing Committee
