Call for Poster Submissions to IISSAM 2012

and

Announcement that Registration is Open


IISSAM, the International Institute for SoTL Mentors and Scholars, will be held at Loyola Marymount University, in Los Angeles, CA, June 1-3, 1012, with plenary speakers Mary Huber, Eric Strauss, and Jennifer Meta Robinson. Tony Ciccone will lead a preconference workshop on May 31, 2012. See http://wwwiissam.org <http://wwwiissam.org>

Scholarship of Teaching and Learning projects (already selected by a peer-review process) will be presented as works-in-progress. Institute attendees will participate in the process of mentoring those projects using the model developed by the Carnegie Academy for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning.

All registered participants (not already selected as scholars) may submit a poster describing an incipient idea for a SoTL project, i.e., a project idea that has not yet been researched in detail or implemented. During the poster session, all attendees will have the opportunity to canvass all submitted posters. The posters will continue to be available during the remainder of the Institute. There will be an opportunity to provide comments and suggestions for each poster.

Formatting instructions for the poster are available at http://www.lmu.edu/resources/iissam/submissions/Poster_Submissions.htm <http://www.lmu.edu/resources/iissam/submissions/Poster_Submissions.htm>

Posters may be submitted during the registration process or sent by email to iissam at lmu.edu <iissam at lmu.edu>
