1) Pretend you are organizing this international camp.  What are YOUR ideas
about the kinds of activities which should take place?  Your suggestions should
deal both with what (and how) to learn about computers and with activities to
help young people from different countries to really get to know each other.
2) There will be less than four weeks to learn about the Soviet Union, a country
and people very important to us.  What do you think are the MOST important
things to learn about in order to come home with a better understanding
(political systems, beliefs, social life, schools, etc.).  Perhaps a good way to
think about this question is to imagine you will give a talk about your trip to
your friends or at school after you get home and have to plan what observations
to make.  Since your friends can't make the trip, what things will itbe most
important for them to know?
3) Add any other information you wish about yourself and your interest in this
trip.
