I guess I have some pretty high aspirations when it comes to places that I would like to present, but hey, I might as well aim high, right? I would like to do a national conference because I want to travel, is that so wrong? Well, most of the ones that would be likely are right here in Austin, TX so I would only get to travel up the road a ways. One is all the way down in San Antonio!
Seriously, I think the TABE conference or the TCEA conferences would both be good choices. Some of them, like the gaming conference, I might be able to do once I add in the information that I will be getting as I work in the Globaloria program in the upcoming year. Speaking of Globaloria, I will be going to the Globaloria summer workshop in two weeks, so while I am there, I will ask about presenting at the December workshop. They already know me, so they just might let me do it. Also, the Region XIII Education Service Center offers professional development for teachers here in Austin year round, so that is definitely another avenue I am exploring.
I did find something that was especially promising. On a website called WeAreTeachers is having a video contest with the prompt "What does 21st Century Readiness Mean to You?" They are looking for one minute videos addressing the prompt and the winner receives a trip to the National Summit on 21st Century Readiness in Washington, D.C. in October. I think I might just enter, if I ever finish all these blog posts.

ReplyDeleteGood job Tersee, I am happy to see that you have high aspirations of where you would like to publish. This shows that you are proud and passionate about your AR project. This is good because when you believe in your-self you create energy deep from within that other people can feel and that will make it easer for them to buy into what you are presenting. I see that you are talking about the TABE conference; I thank that is a good choice. I am familiar with the TABE because I taught Adult Basic Education for three years.
I am sure that your contribution in the form of your AR project will be a worthy and welcome addition to the academic community. I wish you well in all your future endeavors
