Dear Megan,
The time has come again to start planning the annual fall OAEA conference that will be held October 11th and 12th, 2013 in Sisters,
Oregon! We expect approximately 150 conference attendees that include art teachers from the elementary, middle, secondary and higher level as well as art historians, artists and other professionals with a passion for teaching and making art! This professional development opportunity is not possible without great workshops and presenters. This email is soliciting anyone and everyone that feels lead to present a Friday 1 or 2 hour Workshop and/or a Saturday 3 or 6 hour "Master Class" session for OAEA members and conference attendees. To the left you will find Digital Submission Presenter Forms, if you are interested in hosting a workshop or master class, please submit a digital submission application by April 15th, 2013. If you have that unique unit or project, it just might be what another teacher is looking for, so submit your idea! We would love for your to share your skill, expertise and knowledge!
What kinds of workshops/classes are we looking for?
POTENTIAL PRESENTATION FORMATS:
Best Practice or Research Lecture: Practitioners present exemplary lessons, instructional practices, programs, and/or initiatives from actual practice. Researchers present academic papers and findings from formal research, perhaps followed by Q&A.
Hands-on Demonstration & Studio Workshop: Present a demonstration or technique relative to art. Attendees will make a project during the session with materials you provide for them. (If accepted, presenters will be reimbursed for the cost of materials).
Interactive Discussion: Presenters engage participants in a discussion related to current topics such as effective practice, art education issues, and instructional or curriculum topics.
(Please keep in mind the best workshops offer something that classroom teachers can bring back to their classrooms and put to use and/or artists can incorporate into their artistic practice!)
Please also consider forwarding this call to your artist friends as they may be interested in teaching a Saturday Master Class for limited compensation.
Digital submissions will be the only form of application accepted this for all presenters. Please see the Digital Submission Forms in column to the left.
Sincerely,
Meg Radocha
Oregon Art Education Association
Workshop Coordinator
