A wonderful opportunity for students in the MATESOL program has come up: The 2012 Graduate Student Forum is now accepting proposals for their meeting on March 28, 2012. The forum is accepting proposals for presentations in the following three categories:
1. Paper
“An oral summary, with occasional reference to notes or a text, which describes or discusses something that the presenter is doing or has done in relation to theory or practice.”
2. Demonstration
“Shows, rather than discusses, a technique for teaching or testing.”
3. Poster Session
“Short, informal discussions with other participants while a self-explanatory exhibit is on display.”
For those interested, here is some very important information:
- In order to participate in the forum, you must be registered. You can register online here.
- All proposals must be submitted online by 7:00PM EST (4:00PM PST), November 11, 2011.
- Proposals sent by physical mail/post will be disqualified.
- You will be notified by e-mail about the status of your submission by December 9, 2011.
