TYPE OF PRESENTATION
In the conference program, each abstract will be labeled with the
following descriptions so participants will know what they are signing up
for in each of the sessions. Please
indicate the type of presentation in the space provided in the Proposal
Form.
WORKSHOP: The presenter works
with the group, helping them to develop a specific teaching technique or a
hands-on activity. The emphasis is on the participantsי interaction that has to be carefully structured by the presenter.
LECTURE: A lecture discusses
and describes a topic the presenter is working on or has worked on in
relation to either theory or practice. Participation from the audience is
usually limited to questions and discussion during or at the end of the
lecture. All plenary sessions are lectures.
DEMONSTRATION: Rather than
describing or discussing, a demonstration shows a technique for teaching or
testing. The presenterיs statement of the
theory underlying the technique is usually brief. The rest of the time is
used for showing, rather than telling.
RESEARCH IN PROGRESS: A report
which discusses ongoing research: includes presentation of the problem,
methodology, implications of research, and so on. The presentation is
followed by a discussion with the audience.
