PRESENTATIONS

For virtual presentations, the participant is expected to deliver a 15-minute video-recording related to his/her topic. Within the recording, authors present summaries or overviews of their work, describing the essential features (related to purpose, procedures, outcomes, or product). Authors are welcome to submit traditional “lecture style” videos or videos that use visual supports like PowerPoint or Prezi. Upon the acceptance of the abstract of virtual presentation, final videos must be submitted until February 15, 2019.

In-person conference participants will view the virtual presentations during the scheduled time slot in the program. As a reminder, please be sure to include contact details (e.g. email address) at the beginning and end of the presentation to direct people to more detailed information.
