Proposals for Poster Sessions or Participant Idea Exchanges

All participants in the Institute are invited to submit proposals for posters and/or participant idea exchanges for consideration by the program committee. All proposals received by October 1, 2011 will be considered for the program. Later proposals will be considered if space remains available. Submissions should be related to the teaching of psychology. This includes, but is not limited to, teaching techniques, innovations, evaluation, and philosophy. Each proposal should be double-spaced and include: a) whether it is being submitted as a poster presentation or a participant idea exchange, b) the title, c) the author name(s), institution(s), and snail mail and email address(es), and d) a summary of no more than 250 words. Graphs, tables, and photographs need not be included. Proposals may be submitted with registration forms by mail or fax, or by email to Robert Hendersen at hendersr@gvsu.edu, with a copy to the NITOP office, jfetzner@illinois.edu. Proposals for participant idea exchanges should include the discussion questions which will be raised during the session. Presenters at poster sessions and participant idea exchanges will be notified promptly in writing regarding acceptance. Poster presenters will also receive detailed guidelines about how to prepare their materials for the conference (also see ). The lists of titles in the various poster and PIE sessions will be posted on the page as soon as they are available. These schedules and the discussion questions for participant idea exchanges will also be included in registration materials on-site.
