Hi Folks,
Many of us have been looking ahead to conferences in the fall. There are two academic conferences that are likely venues for TOS publications and events held in October: Frontiers in Education (FIE) in Oklahoma and Special Interest Group for Information Technology Education (SIGITE) in Florida. Unfortunately, these two conferences are being held at exactly the same time. I have attended both conferences in the past. While FIE is a much larger conference, it also covers a wider domain of engineering education. Recently I have observed a diminishing computing audience at FIE. Therefore, I draw your attention to the SIGITE conference. It has a smaller attendance (less than 100), but it is much more focused on computing and has a community that is very welcoming to TOS topics. The information about the conference is still being posted, but typically submissions would be in March. Just wanted to bring some attention to SIGITE and also let you know the reasons why I'm submitting to SIGITE rather than FIE this year. I do wish that they weren't being held at the same time! Heidi
