The Call for Proposals for the 2015 Teaching Professor Conference is now open.

The Teaching Professor invites proposals for workshops and poster sessions for the 2015 Teaching Professor Conference, May 29-31 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Now in its 12th year, The Teaching Professor Conference provides a thought-provoking and stimulating forum for educators of all disciplines and experience levels to share practical ideas and best practices that advance college teaching and learning.

We invite submissions for the 45- and 75-minute concurrent sessions as well as poster sessions. Submissions should relate to one of the following topical areas, however compelling proposals that fall outside of these designated topics are welcome.

Featured topical areas are:
• Instructional Design
• Activities that Engage Students
• Teaching Specific Types of Students
• Instructional Vitality: Ways to Keep Teaching Fresh and Invigorated
• Teaching and Learning with Technology
• Creating Climates for Learning
• Faculty Development

Whether you are a new or returning presenter, we encourage you to seriously consider this opportunity to share your expertise at a conference of your peers. The deadline for submitting a proposal is October 31, 2014.

NOTE: Presenters are responsible for their own registration, hotel, and travel expenses. If you are unsure whether your institution would support your participation in the conference, please speak with your department chair before submitting a proposal.
