- The Extended Abstract submission type is for work that is still
in the process of study and/or implementation. That is the work is not complete,
thus, results may not be available.

Web page by the submission deadline.
- The author must submit: author's name, abstract title, author's affiliation, phone
number, fax number, and e-mail address.
- Each abstract should be between 300 and 500 words in length.
- One author from each paper is expected to register for and attend the conference.
The registered author can present more than one paper.
- Final papers will be limited to three pages, not including references or Author
Bios. See the paper guidelines for font and spacing requirements.
- Work in Progress papers will be peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers. The purpose
of the review will be to provide the author with feedback to consider in their on
going research.
- Abstracts are due by May 1, 2014.
- Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection of their abstract by May 5,
2014.
- If your abstract is accepted, papers are due for peer review by June 1, 2014.
- Authors will be notified of peer review results by July 10, 2014.
- Modified papers will be due by July 26, 2014.
Basic Paper Descriptions
How something works in Practice or could work in Practice
To help authors prepare their final submissions, the conference suggests the following
guidelines for preparing a Full paper.
- What is the breadth of the audience that will be interested in the subject of the
paper?
- To what extent are the practices described in the paper innovative, leading-edge,
cutting-edge?
- Has the research already been done or proposed?
- To what degree have questions about purpose, potential hypotheses, and possible
methodologies been addressed?
- Paper should be professionally written and presented.
- Purpose of the paper
-
Papers should share information about how a faculty member or team are developing
and/or implementing, novel practices across the breadth of topics of interest to
conference participants. The work does not have to be completed but should be at
a phase where meaningful information can be presented.
-
-
Papers could share information about how a faculty member or group of faculty members
are developing and/or implementing new practices explicitly based on research on
engineering education and/or education. The paper should demonstrate transfer from
research to practice. The work does not have to be completed but should be at a
phase where meaningful information can be presented.
-
- Content - Suggestions not Requirements
-
Papers may be made in various forms, but they should answer such questions as: What
situation is being addressed? What are the goals of the practice being implemented?
What research provides the foundations for the inventive practice? It should have
something that very few people or no one else has attempted. In addition, the study
need not be completed by the time the paper is submitted.
-
-
It is suggested that the final paper should describe the setting for the practice,
motivations for the practice, what has been accomplished, what remains to be done,
or some similar content. It is assumed that the practices described in the paper
or an implementation of the research has not been widely tested.
-
-
It is suggested that the final paper should describe some similar research that
has supported the practice, or how does the research incorporate any relevant research.
A brief synopsis of the methodology, and/or describe the research question(s) should
be included.
-
-
Finally, it is suggested that the final paper should describe what results the authors
anticipate will be obtained, and what remains to be done before the study will be
completed, or some similar content.
