Call for Proposals
Maybe less IS more! NNETESOL welcomes to shorter sessions
Revving up for November
NNETESOL invites proposals for our upcoming conference. Consider sharing your expertise with your colleagues and present at our annual NNETESOL Conference. Please submit a proposal application via our 2016 conference page. We’re accepting proposals for 25- and 45-minute sessions! Proposal Deadline: May 31, 2016
You read right! We are planning to open up the call for proposals to include presentation opportunities that will be 25 minutes long. In this way, attendees can visit more sessions, present and still not miss out on other learning opportunities.
Our goal is to be by the people, for the people. So come join us!
Our process is simple. We are very practice based. So keep in mind that something that’s working in your classroom could be perfect for a presentation.
Here are the details, and this is the link to the online proposal submission form.
