Yikes! Amid the hustle and bustle of late summer professional development sessions and the beginning of the school year, it may have slipped your mind that the deadline for applying to present at MACUL 09 is quickly approaching. On September 29th, 2008, the call for presenters for the 2009 conference will close, which means if you have a great idea for a session, your time is limited. If you’re like me before I started presenting, then you’re probably wondering how you’re going to find the time/energy/courage to offer up an abstract for presenting in front of educators from around the state. It’s actually a lot easier than you think, especially considering many sessions showcase successful projects or learning experiences that you’ve probably done with your students several times in the classroom. In fact, some of the most highly regarded presentations are those conducted by teachers showcasing tools that have made their teaching easier, or ways to use newer tools to enhance the traditional curriculum.
All that’s due by the 29th of September are abstracts of your presentation, and a few bits of information about the grade level and subject area. In exchange for a successfully accepted proposal, MACUL will pay your 2 day conference registration, bestow upon you a beautiful presenter ribbon, and you’ll get to see your name printed in big bold letters on conference signage. If you’d like the MACUL leadership to consider bringing you to the conference for free, just click on the link below, and submit your abstract before the deadline, September 29th!
