The NMC Summer Conference is a one-of-a-kind event, attracting highly skilled education professionals interested in the integration of emerging technologies and innovative approaches into teaching, learning, and creative inquiry.

Proposal Deadline: Sunday, January 29th

*Full information and submission details here*

Proposal Submission. All proposals must be submitted through the online proposal system.  (Sorry, no exceptions.)  The main presenter and each co-presenter must have an account on the NMC website in order to complete the proposal.  Presenters who do not yet have an account should create an account before starting the proposal submission process.Session Description. The proposal description should be one succinct paragraph containing no more than 100 words. The standard NMC format avoids the use of first person pronouns (“I will…” “We talk about…”), referring instead to “the presenters” or “this session.”  Be as specific as you can about what people in the audience will experience, do, or learn. This is the paragraph that will be used in the printed conference program.  You can add additional detail in the session plan and format of the submission form.

Additional suggestions. When writing your proposal, keep these points in mind:

• The description should be concise, accurate, self-contained and coherent;
• Use a clear and direct style with an active voice;
• Include a statement on how you plan to engage the audience;
• Describe who will benefit from attending this session;
• Include a clear statement of what attendees will learn; and
• Write so that conference reviewers and attendees will become instantly engaged in your presentation, knowing it will be valuable, interesting, relevant and unique. (All in 100 words!)
• Make sure to include attachments and links for your presentation, if any, when you submit the proposal.
