Please Note Our Focus
We value conference sessions that are participatory; that is, sessions that create opportunities for participants to actively build knowledge together. We have often found that even conference sessions that purport to be active and participatory often end up being a lecture with some light Q&A or a quick survey. This is a comfortable dynamic for many, but it is not as conducive to learning as participatory approaches can be. Therefore, we ask that your proposal describe how you will ensure that your session has elements that are participatory, active, and encouraging of critical thinking and real-life problem solving.
