Call for Proposals- Deadline July 1 - Read.Write.Act Virtual Literacy Conference

[Announcement from he-sl listserv]

Hello Higher Education Service-Learning members,

I wanted to remind everyone about SCALE’s virtual literacy conference, themed “25 years of Student Service in Tutoring,” on November 7-8th, 2014. We’re looking for 1 hour Webinar-format proposals for 4 different tracks:
1)      Tutoring K-12 learners
2)      Tutoring adult or ESL learners
3)      Program management*
4)      Social justice topics*
*Does not need to be literacy specific, as long as it is transferable.

This is a great presentation opportunity for programs who are looking to promote their work, college students and community partners who have stories to share about how to run a quality program, and faculty members who would like to disseminate efforts to implement quality research to impact education.

The presentations are virtual, so no need to travel! All proposals must be submitted by July 1st. Our audience includes program administrators, AmeriCorps volunteers, and college-aged students.

Learn more, including how to submit a proposal, at http://readwriteact.org/events/read-write-act-conference/.

I’d be more than happy to answer any questions people may have. Thanks for your time!

Megan
