We would like for you to begin thinking about your participation in this day. Are you interested in presenting? (presentations will be limited to 50 minutes) Faculty, can you think of any teachers who have graduated from your program in the past, or other teachers who you know that you could work with on a presentation? Past Presenters, are you interested in presenting again? We are interested in seeing area teachers present, but are also interested in collaborations between ONU faculty and area teachers so that participants get the best of both worlds: faculty content expertise and experience along with teachers' recent or current experience in the classroom. Do you know of others you can work with to present? Please feel free to pass this information along to others you feel would be awesome presenters! If you would like to present here is the information I will need no later than Thursday, August 30th Title of presentation:______________________________________________________________________________________ Description (1-3 sentences)_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
