Call for Participation: ICER "LIGHTNING TALKS"
Lightning Talk Application Deadline: June 17, 2012
ICER 2012 -- International Computing Education Research Conference
Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand
September 10-11, 2012
--------------------------------------------------
We invite submissions for the Lightning Talk session at this year’s
International Computing Education Research Conference (ICER) to be held
at Auckland University of Technology on September 10-11, 2012.
What is exactly is a Lightning Talk? Lightning Talks are short, strictly
timed 3 minute presentations intended to further expand the ICER
community and spark discussion among conference participants. The intent
is for these talks to provide a venue in support of new ideas and
newcomers to our community.
Potential benefits of giving a Lightning Talk include:
* getting feedback on a new idea for an empirical CS Ed project,
* getting a critique of a research design or data-gathering strategy,
* showcasing a tool or technique that hasn’t been fully tested,
* finding collaborators at other institutions, and
* inspiring good conversations among conference attendees
Interested presenters should prepare a brief abstract as a Word or PDF
document containing the following information:
* Your name, as you wish it to appear in the program
* Your affiliation(s)
* An email address to which correspondence can be directed
* A project/talk abstract using a maximum of 300 words (including
references, if used)
Abstracts should be submitted no later than June 17 to Brian Dorn via
email at bd...@hartford.edu for consideration. Accepted abstracts will
be made available on the conference website in addition to the
presentations made at the conference.
