The Provost’s Office and January Conference Committee are excited to announce the call for proposals for the upcoming annual January Conference. Next year?s conference theme is ?Teaching with Technology?. The conference will provide a platform for faculty to discuss their research, practices, and applications of technology to their teaching.
The conference committee seeks proposals that will speak to the diverse technical and instructional skillsets of our faculty at different stages of their professional careers. Presentations will be selected based on their appropriateness to the theme, and theoretical framework of the conference and/or practical use of technology for instructional purposes.

The proposal submissions should address any of the following conference tracks:
? Track 1 – Social and Collaborative Technologies
? Track 2 – Online and Mobile Learning
? Track 3 – Teaching Today?s Students with Technology
? Track 4 – Getting Started with Instructional Technology
The January Conference will feature a general session with keynote speaker Dr. Candace Thille (Director, Open Learning Initiative at Carnegie Mellon University), conference track sessions featuring individual/group presenters, panel discussions, poster sessions and round table lunch discussions, plus an interactive room to explore some of Towson?s instructional technologies.
