TETC 2022 Call for Educator Session Guidelines:

TETC’s professional development educator sessions provide learning opportunities that are intended to provide attendees with tools and knowledge to strengthen their professional practices.

The TETC 2022 Conference will include high-quality breakout sessions by practicing educational leaders. Our goal is to provide high-quality professional development sessions that explore and discuss critical education/edtech issues, best practices, emerging technologies, trends, and insights.

TETA values equity, diversity, inclusion, and access for all people as core principles in our work. Conference sessions will reflect and model these values in subject matter, speakers, and panels. Sessions that highlight all areas of Educational Technology are encouraged. Many popular TETC sessions are interactive, offer collaborative networking, and stimulate peer learning in a variety of forums.

Areas of particular interest include:

Session formats:

• Panel Discussion: 2-4 presenters share case studies or expertise on a topic before opening to discussion and Q&A.
• Solo Presentation: An expert on a topic shares findings, case studies, practices, or methodologies before opening to Q&A.  
• Roundtable Conversation: Moderated group conversation on a theme or topic. Highly participatory.
• Digital Playground: This is to display and present Makerspaces, STEM & STEAM items. Everything must be battery operated because there will be no direct power in the digital playground area. Activities should be hands-on with software or items. 
• Workshop: Longer, a participatory session in which participants are guided through engaging activities presented during the first day of the TETC 2022 Conference on Wednesday, Dec. 1, 2021.
