2011 IARSLCE Annual Conference Proposal Submissions

2011 IARSLCE Annual Conference
 
Research for Impact: Scholarship Advancing Social Change
November 2 - 4, 2011
Chicago, Illinois


The theme of the 2011 annual conference is Research for Impact: Scholarship Advancing Social Change. Service-learning and community engagement have evolved locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally as effective methods for teaching and learning. In what ways has the scholarship on these methods contributed to positive social change?  The conference will highlight research that critically evaluates and illuminates the long-term impact of service-learning and community engagement on students, faculty, and community partners and, most importantly, on the social, economic and political issues they seek to transform.

Submission of Proposals  
Proposals will be accepted beginning February 21, 2011. To be considered, all proposals must be received via online submission by April 1, 2011, 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time). Incomplete proposal submissions will not be reviewed. Proposals will be peer reviewed and notification of acceptance will be sent in June 2011.

A new online proposal submission process is being implemented this year to facilitate the review process. Instructions will follow soon.

Please visit our website for further information.
 
 
IMPORTANT NOTE

Since IARSLCE is a research conference, research and scholarship must be at the center of all proposals submitted. Proposals that focus on program descriptions and models, program evaluations, or "how-to" strategies must describe how this topic will advance service-learning and community engagement research for impact. Pure program models of service-learning or other engagement programs are unlikely to be accepted.
 
ABSTRACTS should be limited to 100 words.
 
PROPOSAL NARRATIVES should be limited to 1000 words.
