Dear Fellows and Members of ISDDE, around the world,
We're very much looking forward to seeing those of you who can join us in Berkeley in November. It promises to be a stimulating conference. Take a look at https://sites.google.com/view/isdde2017 if you'd like to know what we're going to be doing...

In the meantime a few bits of news:
We're absolutely delighted to announce that ISDDE 2018 will take place in Galway in the west of Ireland. The dates are 28-31 May and if the USA is too far for an autumn trip, perhaps you will be able to join us in one of the most beautiful venues in Europe (still!) in the Spring.

Other news - we have two issues of our on-line journal Educational Designer in readiness to be published soon. If you're not aware of it, do take a look  - it's worth a read and if you are looking for a peer-reviewed journal to submit to, do consider if it is appropriate for you.

The Executive decided earlier in the year to submit an application to ICMI for Affiliate Organisation status. You may know that Burkhardt and Swan were the first recipients of the ICMI Emma Castelnuovo Award for Excellence in the Practice of Mathematics Education, which effectively is the first prize acknowledging the work of educational designers. So it seemed appropriate to seek affiliation. We hope to hear soon.

And lastly if you are working with designers in your own country and want to tell us about local 'ISDDE' work, we'd love to hear. In the UK we are beginning to set up a study group to meet a couple of times a year for mutual support - if you're UK based and are interested do let me know.

Very best wishes
Lynne
