Hinweis der Redaktion
- Note that the process is not necessarily linear: It may be more circular, and the writer may prefer to start with the actual 300-word session description, then extract an abstract from that, then compose a title…
You will be asked to indicate presentation type during the submission process What are the differences between these different sessions?
Suggestions: Clarify any acronyms State workshop, paper, demonstration, etc. Note types of tips, and which kinds of teachers
Solicit contributions Encourage participants to join/attend specific interest section presentations and speak with respective IS members; review recent literature; go to exhibit hall and speak with publishers’ representatives, examine new books on display
This is more for a presentation of a research study How might this be different for a teaching-related presentation?
There may be no difference among your goals, objectives, or participant outcomes Your central goal is to share your work, but this doesn’t mean that participants will “do” something with it -- so how can you move them toward this? Participants might discuss, learn, share their own experiences, receive concrete suggestions and/or materials, etc. - highlight this “bonus” from your presentation
- Some proposals would be better served at a different conference
- It can be useful to address how your presentation relates to the particular convention’s theme
Distribute the line-numbered model abstract to participants Could be eliminated if time is running out!
