Call for Proposals

USDLA 2010 - Diverse, Innovative, Efficient, Sustainable

St. Louis, MO (USA), November 2009 - The United States Distance Learning Association (USDLA) announces the Call for Proposals for the 2010 Annual Conference. Proposals are now being accepted based on the 2010 theme: "Distance Learning: Diverse, Innovative, Efficient, and Sustainable."

The committee seeks high-quality, interactive sessions - not lecture format. Co-presenters are encouraged.

Poster sessions allow presenters to prepare a standing table-top poster that describes a project, process, or other activity. During the poster session times, conference participants will visit with poster session presenters for information discussion and networking.

Small panels are also encouraged, particularly those that address a conference topic from several points of view.

This year, there is also a new and unique opportunity to present a session in a virtual classroom setting.

Proposals need to be specific about what makes the presentation valuable to attendees. Sales presentations are discouraged. The proposal should be focused on innovative issues and working solutions and should address the conference theme as much as possible. All presenters are expected to register for the full conference. Presenters will be given the early-bird registration rate after being notified of a successful proposal.

Conference Tracks are:

Track 1: Advances and Research in eLearning

Track 2: Professional Development via Distance Learning

Track 3: Innovative Practices in Distance Teaching and Learning

Track 4: Sustainable Technology Innovation

Track 5: Diverse Strategies in Addressing Contemporary Distance Learning Issues

Submission deadline is 04 December 2009. The Program Committee will review proposals, and presenters will be contacted about the status of their proposal by
15 January 2010.
