2003 Annual Conference - Preconference Workshop
Hints
|
- Preconference workshops must
be highly participatory sessions. Since these workshops range
from two to five hours, presentations must plan for participants
to be involved and participate in the session not simply sit and
be lectured to on a topic.
- Participants expect to
leave preconference workshops with information, material, strategies,
and ideas that they can take back to their campuses and use effectively.
Preconference workshops
should be very hands-on and issue specific with material, activities,
strategies and techniques that the participants can effectively
use in their individual situations.Presenters should come prepared
to answer questions concerning implementation and other issue
specific questions.
- Presenters should plan
varying presentation formats for preconference workshops.
Due to the length of preconference
workshops, presenters should plan to include some lecture as well
as possible small and large group activities, question and answer
period
- Workshops should last
the entire time indicated in the registration brochure.
Please remember that participants have paid an additional
fee to attend your workshop; therefore, it is important that you
come prepared with material and information for the entire time
period you have been allotted
- Rooms for preconference
workshops are set "schoolroom style"--rows of long narrow tables
with chairs. There will
be a head table, chairs, and either a tabletop or floor podium
in the front of the room. Enrollment is initially limited to 35--if
your workshop reaches the limit, the NACADA Executive Office will
contact you to see if you are willing to accept more participants.
