Here some of their views: Standing after 3 rounds: 1. Landa - 3; GM Mikhail Golubev: 2-4. Kotronias, Yevseev, Zimina - 2; 5-7. Vocaturo, Cebalo, Piscopo - I think 2005 was a rather 1½; 8. Fercec - 1; successful year for chess, 9. Ronchetti - ½; particularly when compared 10. Franchini - 0. with some previous years, when FIDE managed to New FIDE Rating List create a complete mess. The new FIDE rating list out at 2005 brought major changes to the www.fide.com lives of such great chess legends as Kasparov and Fischer. 2005 will be In the following top-20 list the first remembered as the year of Kasparov's figure is the year of birth, followed by retirement and Topalov's rise to the rating and the number of rated games top. Too sad if it will be also played in the last rated period: remembered as the year of Kramnik's decline – I hope he will yet return to 1. Kasparov 1963 RUS 2812 0 top form in the future. 2. Topalov 1975 BUL 2801 14 3. Anand 1969 IND 2792 14 The main tournaments were the FIDE 4. Svidler 1976 RUS 2765 21 World Championship, the World Team 5. Aronian 1982 ARM 2752 33 Championship, the European 6. Kramnik 1975 RUS 2741 4 Championships and Fide World Cup. 7. Leko 1979 HUN 2740 14 8. Ivanchuk 1969 UKR 2729 34 The anti-drawing experiment at the 9. Gelfand 1968 ISR 2723 33 super-tournament in Sofia was one of 10. Ponomariov 1983 UKR 2723 19 the key events of the year, I think. 11.

The failure of ACP to 14. J. Polgar 1976 HUN 2711 14 organise its Masters tournaments was 15. Mamedyarov 1985 AZE 2709 34 perhaps the main disappointment of 16. Shirov 1972 ESP 2709 6 the year. The (financial) failure of the 17. Adams 1971 ENG 2707 14 Global CC project is another 18. Akopian 1971 ARM 2704 13 regrettable fiasco. 19. RadJabov 1987 AZE 2700 17 20. Bareev 1966 RUS 2698 29 My main chess hope for 2006 is that we will get a new FIDE President. But Without doubt, the continuing rise of I am afraid that the presence of as Aronian and Mamedyarov are the many as three challengers (Battesti, main features of this list. Aronian was Karpov and Kok) is a bit too much – it No. 10 on the previous list and now he improves Ilyumzinov's chances, as the has even passed Kramnik and got challengers will be competing against quite close to Svidler. As for each other. I also hope that in 2006 Mamedyarov, he broke the 2700 the ACP will grow in all meanings of barrier for the first time. Note that the word and that its influence in the Kasparov is the only player over 40 chess world will increase. I'll be very on this list! pleasantly surprised if the match between Kramnik and Topalov takes place in 2006.

    USING CHESS AS A TOOL FOR PROGRESSIVE EDUCATION _______________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of San Diego State University _______________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Sociology _______________ by Haroutun Bursalyan Summer 2016 iii Copyright © 2016 by Haroutun Bursalyan All Rights Reserved iv DEDICATION To my wife, Micki. v We learn by chess the habit of not being discouraged by present bad appearances in the state of our affairs, the habit of hoping for a favorable change, and that of persevering in the search of resources. The game is so full of events, there is such a variety of turns in it, the fortune of it is so subject to sudden vicissitudes, and one so frequently, after long contemplation, discovers the means of extricating one's self from a supposed insurmountable difficulty.... - Benjamin Franklin The Morals of Chess (1799) vi ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Using Chess as a Tool for Progressive Education by Haroutun Bursalyan Master of Arts in Sociology San Diego State University, 2016 This thesis will look at the flaws in the current public education model, and use John Dewey’s progressive education reform theories and the theory of gamification as the framework to explain how and why chess can be a preferable alternative to teach these subjects. Using chess as a tool to teach the overt curriculum can help improve certain cognitive skills, as well as having the potential to propel philosophical ideas and stimulate alternative ways of thought. The goal is to help, however minimally, transform children’s experiences within the schooling institution from one of boredom and detachment to one of curiosity and excitement.

White can now simply take the pawn with 8.Bxd3 or 8.Qxd3. 8. Qb3 ... Instead of taking the pawn, White opts to begin an attack.
