Presenter Resources

Submit your materials via email to [email protected]. For specific instruction, please view the “Upload your Session Resources” question on the Presenter Information page.

We will not be printing materials before the conference, however, if this concerns you, please write to Sean Kennedy approximately a week before the conference and ask for a list of attendee e-mail addresses. You can then send a note to your group, and let them know that if they'd like a paper copy, they should access and print files on their own and bring them with them as needed. (Send all files for upload by March 24).

COPYRIGHT PERMISSION
It is the responsibility of the seminar speaker(s) to obtain copyright permission. Copyrighted material that has not been cleared for reproduction will not be printed. The seminar budget includes limited funds to pay for copyright permission, so it is important that the speaker clear any expenses for this with the Speaker Liaison. Who can provide information on obtaining copyright permission upon request.

Interactive Presentations
These sessions are opportunities to share topics of interest through an innovative, thought-provoking format that encourages audience participation and interaction. Participant feedback and response to issues will be encouraged throughout the session.

Panel Discussions
These sessions feature two to four dynamic presenters offering case studies about how their institutions have approached a shared topic, or they may feature presenters taking different and sometimes controversial perspectives on a topic. Examples may include the evolving role of the CIO, security, privacy and cloud, advancing IT innovation within budgetary constraints, or other critical issues in higher education. For all panel presentations participant feedback and response will be encouraged.

Poster Sessions
A poster session demonstrates the use of an emerging technology or innovative practice for teaching and learning, typically in the early stages of development. Presenters may use a laptop, a poster, or both to demonstrate the unique features and functionality of the tool or program and to assist in providing a visual overview of the project. As attendees visit, presenters have the opportunity to discuss the poster topic with them; therefore, presenters should prepare a few introductory remarks (one to two minutes) to engage listeners in the subject.

Standard Presentations
These sessions are 45 minutes long; presenters and panels are asked to allocate at least 10 to 15 minutes for questions and answers from the audience. Standard presentations are opportunities to present in detail on a project. Proposals will be evaluated against the selection criteria listed below.
