Submissions

There are five SCCR submission format choices for 2010. Please see the “Call for Submissions” for full explanations of Paper, Poster, Symposium, Panel Discussion, and Conversation Hour sessions.

A “Paper” session is a grouping of several independent 15-minute (minimum) oral presentations on a general theme, given in front of an audience. The conference Program Committee will group accepted papers together based on similarity of topics.

A “Poster” session is a grouping of several individual FACULTY or STUDENT poster presentations (each tacked onto a 3’ X 4’ cardboard poster board supplied by SCCR at the conference). Other attendees will browse through the posters at a session and may talk with the presenter one-on-one. No electric power will be available for posters.

A “Symposium” will consist of 3-4 (maximum = 4) oral 15-minute (minimum) presentations, and an integrative commentary by 1 discussant (maximum), given in front of an audience on a theme chosen by the symposium’s organizer.

A “Panel Discussion” is the same overall length as a symposium, but the oral presentations will be shorter, leaving much of the session time for a wide-ranging discussion within the panel and with the audience.

A “Conversation Hour” will consist of 1-2 speakers on one general topic, who will give brief oral presentations about their shared topic and engage in an in-depth and informal dialogue with the audience.
