AECT Annual International Convention - Call for Proposals
Strengthening Connections
October 11th-14th, 2006 Dallas, Texas
The AECT Annual International Convention will be held in October of 2006 at the Fairmont Hotel in Dallas, Texas, right next to the Historic Arts District. The convention theme is Strengthening Connections. Supporting the main theme are four sub-themes related to making stronger connections: (1) Between theory and practice, (2) Between new technologies and educational goals, (3) Between researchers around the globe; and (4) Between new professionals and more experienced colleagues. We encourage proposals to support the convention theme and its sub-themes.
