CALL FOR PRESENTATION
ISETA-99
The Twenty-ninth Annual Conference of the
International Society for Exploring Teaching Alternatives
October 14-16, 1999
Arizona State University
Tempe, Arizona
ISETA encourages college and university faculty and practitioners from all
disciplines to study and apply the principles of teaching, learning, and
assessment of learning in innovative ways to develop and implement practical,
effective alternatives to the traditional text-lecture-test approach to
instruction. The program committee invites proposals for 60 minute presentations
that reflect these purposes. We are especially interested in presentations and
workshops that demonstrate practical creative teaching alternatives, based on
personal experiences and/or research, which will appeal to colleagues in several
disciplines. We will also consider presentations on other topics relevant to the
purposes of ISETA. Presenters should not read their papers, but should model
teaching alternatives by engaging their audience in activity and dialogue.
The ISETA conference offers a friendly, informal, and highly interactive gathering
of professionals dedicated to the profession and scholarship of teaching and
learning. The rich representation of disciplines from traditional liberal arts
and sciences, engineering and the applied sciences, and a diverse set of
professional schools gives us all new insights to achieving common goals of
improving teaching and learning. ISETA conferences provide a professional forum
for those who have something to share and the interactive nature of the
presentations makes learners and teachers of us all.
To be considered for review, a proposal must be postmarked on or before March 31,
1999 and consist of the following:
* A cover page containing the title of the presentation or workshop, the name
and title of the author(s), complete institutional address(es), and telephone
number(s), summer address (if different), FAX number, email address, and
special audio-visual needs;
* Three copies of a two-page summary of the content of the presentation,
including its objectives and format, and a brief profile of the intended
audience (Do not include the author's name on the summary pages);
* Two stamped, self-addressed envelopes.
Submit the above to:
