Fellows Workshop
A unique feature of this conference is a one-day workshop
for members (Fellows and Associate Fellows) of the Academy.
The day will be devoted to fostering intense interchange
among the members around the theme of the conference.
The 2007 Fellows Workshop is being convened by Young Kim and
D.P.S. Bhawuk. All interested Fellows and Associate Fellows
are invited to submit a paper proposal.
Proposals should be 1400-1500 words in length (excluding
references, tables, figures, and appendices) and submitted
electronically to both Young Kim ([email protected]) and
D.P.S. Bhawuk ([email protected] ) by November 15, 2006.
To maintain the common thrust of the Workshop theme and
level of intellectual consistency and cohesion across
papers, the following considerations are among the criteria
that will be employed to assess the suitability of proposed
Workshop papers.
1. Relevance to the Workshop theme: Given the broad domain
suggested by the theme, (Globalization and Diversity) the
paper must clearly identify the main focus of the proposed
paper and articulate its directe and substantive relevance
to the Workshop theme.
2. Key issues/questions being addressed: The proposal must
include the specific theoretical and/or applied -practical
issues/question (e.g., education, training) the author
authr(s) attempt to address with respect to the paper's
focal phenomenon.
3. Brief literature review: All Proposals, including those
that mainly address applied-practical issues, must identify
at least some of the pertinent theories and research
evidence.
4. Knowledge claims: The proposal must include a set of
knowledge claims that the author(s) seek to make with
respect to the key issues/questions addressed in the paper.
This information should accompany an explanation clarifying
the of the author's knowledge claims and their potential
theoretical and/practical significance.
