The Online Learning Consortium invites you to submit a proposal for OLC Accelerate 2020. The CFP is now closed. Thank you for your submission. Notifications were emailed to all submitters on July 20, 2020.
Graduate students (currently enrolled or who have received a masters or doctoral degree within the past year) are invited to submit Discovery Session proposals for works in progress or completed research. We seek proposals that reflect and showcase our vibrant community of practice — promoting theory, research and methodology, and practice in online teaching and learning.
Up to three graduate student proposals will be accepted, and selected presenters will be recognized at the conference Awards Ceremony.
Benefits of Attendance and Presentation at OLC
More about the Graduate Student Discovery Session Presentation Format
Proposals may include works in progress or completed research results. Discovery Sessions provide an excellent opportunity to present your ideas to your peers in a community forum.
Those presenting as a graduate student through this CFP process will receive a discounted registration rate of $295. Submissions must be entered as the session type “Graduate Student Discovery Session” to be eligible for this reduced registration rate.
Please note that each presenter must provide their own laptop.
Submission Process
We seek submissions by students currently enrolled in or recently graduated (within one year) from a Graduate (Master or Doctoral) program whose research is relevant to online teaching and learning. The proposal submission must follow the guidelines of the OLC Accelerate 2020 conference sessions. Note that each individual is limited to no more than one proposal submission to the Graduate Student Discovery Session type.
Proposal Review Process
The following questions, in addition to the OLC Accelerate 2020 CFP selection criteria, will guide evaluators in the proposal review process.
