2012 Learning 2.0 Call for Proposals and Submission Instructions

Thank you for your interest in presenting at the Learning 2.0 Conference. The conference will be held entirely online from August 20 - 24, 2012. There are five subject strands, and everyone is encouraged to submit a presentation proposal.

Proposals will be accepted from July 25th - August 18, 2012. Proposals are reviewed in the order submitted, and earlier acceptance will give you the most flexibility in scheduling your presentation time during the conference. You may submit more than one proposal, but we will give priority to providing as many presenters the chance to present as possible, before accepting additional proposals from a particular presenter.

Your presentation proposal, once submitted, will be listed on the Classroom 2.0 / Learning 2.0 Conference website, with the opportunity for members of this network to view, comment on, and/or "like" your presentation proposal. This will give you and the other members of this site the chance to share ideas and to make connections before, during, and after the conference. Additionally, it will allow us to gauge the popularity of your topic or approach. It is our intention that all serious proposals be given the opportunity to be presented.

Final presentations should be at least 20 minutes in length, and all sessions must be completed (including Q&A) within one hour. All sessions will be held in Blackboard Collaborate (previously Elluminate/Wimba). Presenters will be responsible for familiarizing themselves with the web conferencing platform. We will send you recorded training information , as well as provide live training sessions where you can ask questions. To practice, you can also sign up for the Collaborate trial room. Information is at: http://www.WeCollaborate.com

All presentations will be recorded and released under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs License. For more information, please visit: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/). By submitting to present, you are agreeing to these terms.

Presentations are to be non-commercial. Interest in commercial sponsorship or presentations should be directed to Steve Hargadon at steve@hargadon.com.
