Conference Planning

I have been told that people are interested in talking about how to do more professional development through attending conferences. Today we are discussing how to:

select conferences to attend
draft abstracts
advocate for funding

Please contribute your ideas directly into the padlet below. This padlet is being used as the structure for the session on conference planning.

I attended the @advlearn conference this week @collegelacite and was reminded, in the College's stunning innovation and event space, how important art, music, and good food are for everyone's well-being. Especially, how important those elements are in the context of learning.

This is why we teach! To get students excited about their futures and to prepare them for great success. How do we do it? By providing students with opportunities for self-directed learning and engaging learning opportunities. #AdvLearn2019 pic.twitter.com/2TDIHzhEW5
