What else do I need to know?
By submitting this proposal, you are guaranteeing that the work is your own (i.e. it does not infringe on copyright, is not AI-generated, etc.) and it contains no libelous or other unlawful matter and makes no improper invasion of the privacy of any other person.
Equipment Information
As required by the conference venue, presenters should not affix materials (e.g. Post-Its, push pins, taped pages, etc.) to walls in or around the presentation room.
What equipment should I expect in the presentation room?
Your presentation room at the conference comes supplied with a computer projector (HDMI connection) and audio interface for the amplification of sound from videos or other apps. If your laptop does not have an HDMI connection, you will need to bring an adapter. All rooms seating over 75 are equipped with a microphone for vocal amplification.
No additional equipment will be in the room on the day of your presentation. AMATYC is unable to provide equipment outside of the projector/audio interface. This includes cables, laptop computers, overhead projectors, document cameras, but is not limited to, calculators, calculator view screens, software, smart boards, or any other type of equipment.
You may request a hardwired internet connection for presenter-use only; however, an explanation of use will need to be provided. Internet access for attendees is not guaranteed.Proposal Review
This is a blind review process and the title, summary, and description should not include the name(s) of the presenter(s).
How will my proposal be reviewed?
Proposals are reviewed and rated by the Program Committee and take into account:
- Evidence of effectiveness of teaching strategies, materials or ideas to be shared.
- Appropriateness for mathematics educators, including the extent to which faculty may use the information after the conference
- Presentations that model a variety of instructional strategies (e.g. group learning, discovery methods, active learning), interactive uses of technology, or other methods that actively involve the audience.
Other Resources/Information
When can I expect to hear a decision regarding whether my proposal has been accepted?
A decision about your submission will be sent during the first week of May.
What should I do if I have a question that is not listed here?
Please contact the Program Coordinator at programcoordinator@amatyc.org with any additional questions.
Are there other resources to help with my proposal or learn about other opportunities to get involved with the conference?
