Information for Speakers and Facilitators

Instructions and preparation will be updated on this page.

Speakers, facilitators, and conveners met on Oct. 16th to go through requirements and roles of speakers and facilitators.

 

Speakers:

• There will be two invited speaker sessions, one Monday morning and one Monday afternoon; view the Program to see the listed speakers and talk subjects, which will be updated as you send us your talk titles.
• Each talk is only 7 minutes long.   Questions for presenters will be held between groups of speakers (every 2-3 speakers) and additional questions can be answered in the Slack channels and during working sessions.
• Please be sure to email us (mjkahn@carleton.edu) the title of your talk and a .pdf or .ppt of your talk slides by Wednesday Oct. 19, in advance of the workshop.  This way we can have all the presentations downloaded ahead of the session.
• For examples of previous talks, you may be interested to look at the virtual workshop recordings found on the 2022 Program - particularly Embedding Online MATLAB Teaching Tools in Courses.

Facilitators:

• Your role in group discussions is largely to guide conversations and other educators towards the named outcomes (not necessarily to provide domainal expertise on the topics or curricula at hand).
• Lisa will try to group participants by shared area or domain.
• For each session, the main role of the facilitator is to keep the discussion on track, and to check in as a group or with individuals to make sure they know what deliverables they should try to create.
• Instructions for how to facilitate conversations for each discussion/work section will be provided in the Program: See the highlighted sections of the program document for discussion sections: 2023 Program - highlighted for facilitators (Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx) 20kB Oct16 23)
