Dear Colleagues,

due to coronavirus disease, we were forced to change the form of the conference and move it into virtual space. We decided to organise the distant conference within the dates previously set for the stationary event (June 17-19, 2020). We are planning to use the Microsoft Teams application for oral presentations and discussion. It requires the participants are equipped with the hardware which allows at least voice connection (for example notebook with built-in microphone; video connections are also welcome) to be able to actively participate in the event.

We plan about 20 minutes for each contribution – 12 minutes for shared presentation with voice comments + possibly a view from the presenter's camera and 8 minutes for discussion.

We know that this form of conference is not perfect but taking into account the dynamically changing situation it seems that it is better to meet in such limited opportunities than not to meet at all. We believe that at the next conference we will make up for this lack of personal contacts.

Since the costs of virtual event are much lower than stationary one, we have reduced the conference fee to 50 euros, which will be mainly allocated to cover publishing costs.

Financial issues

Dear Colleagues,

Thank you for the interest in taking part in the DidSci 2020 conference in stationary form. As we previously informed, due to the global situation we had to change the form of the conference to the virtual one. As a result we decreased the conference fee to the amount of 50 EURO which is to cover mainly the cost of publication of the monograph. We know that some of you have resigned in taking part in the conference in the new virtual form and some of u accepted a new form. Due to the decreasing the fee some of you decided to "share" their fee with their colleagues to enable them also taking part in the on-line conference.

We would like to make the financial situation clear and give the money back to those who paid greater amount or resigned.

Therefore we ask those who want to get the money back (fully or partially) for confirmation the following data (In order to get money back that confirmation is required):

The name of the participant (or participants),
Institution and address
The amount paid.
The amount to be returned
The account number
The name of the bank
Address of the bank
The SWIFT CODE

The confirmation should be sent to the following email address until 15 VI 2020.
