INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON LEARNING AND ADMINISTRATION IN HIGHER EDUCATION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://ICLAHE.org <--Full Conference Information
We encourage the submission of manuscripts, and abstracts to any of the following tracks:
Learning
We encourage the submission of manuscripts pertaining to pedagogical topics. We believe that much of the learning process is not discipline specific and that we can all benefit from looking at research and practices outside our own discipline. The ideal submission would take a general focus on learning rather than a discipline-specific perspective. For example, instead of focusing on "Motivating Students in Group Projects in Marketing Management", you might broaden the perspective to "Motivating Students in Group Projects in Upper Division Courses" or simply "Motivating Students in Group Projects" The objective here is to share your work with the larger audience.
Academic Administration
We encourage the submission of manuscripts pertaining to the administration of academic units in colleges and universities. We believe that many of the challenges facing academic departments are not discipline specific and that learning how different departments address these challenges will be beneficial. The ideal paper would provide information that many administrators would find useful, regardless of their own disciplines.
APPLICABLE TO BOTH CONFERENCES
