Read.Write.Act 2012 Virtual Conference

Call for Conference Presenters & Virtual Posters

The Read.Write.Act 2012 Virtual Conference is quickly approaching. The Student Coalition for Action in Literacy Education (SCALE) is currently seeking proposals for presentations and virtual posters from interested parties. In honor of an election year, this year the theme is Literacy as a National Priority.

SCALE is looking for individuals who are interested in presenting a session that is approximately 50 minutes long during the conference days, November 1st – 3rd, 2012. Conference presenters will use Elluminate software for these presentations. SCALE will provide training and technical support. If you are interested in presenting during the Read.Write.Act 2012 virtual conference, please complete this form: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEdDLWgtejFhYWV4WTY0dy0tMEVuaXc6MQ

SCALE is also looking to include virtual posters for this year’s Read.Write.Act 2012 conference. We would like to encourage interested undergraduate, graduate, and PhD students to create “virtual posters” that describe literacy programs they are involved in or communicate original research.
