*ROLLING SUBMISSION / EARLY ACCEPTANCE MODEL*

The theme for this year's conference is *CONNECT, CONSTRUCT, CREATE:
ENGAGING APPROACHES TO TEACHING AND LEARNING*

ELD uses a “rolling submission” model for proposals: every proposal will be
reviewed and given feedback within 2 weeks of submission. Your submission
will either be accepted or you’ll be provided feedback from our reviewers
and offered an opportunity to revise and resubmit. We’ll continue this
process of accepting or giving constructive feedback to proposals until all
presentation slots are filled or we reach our INITIAL PROPOSAL DEADLINE of
November 21st, 2014.

Submissions will still be accepted after November 21st, but they will be
considered in the second round of proposals.  We will work with those who
submitted by the EARLY ACCEPTANCE DEADLINE and then look toward later
submissions to complete the program, should presentation slots still be
available.

Why this model? Two main reasons: we've seen that having
revise-and-resubmit cycles make our conference’s presentations the best
they can be for our attendees, and accepting excellent proposals as they
arrive is a great way to let our prospective audience know what to look
forward to even before the whole program is finalized. In addition, this
model is easier on our reviewers as we don’t get a rush of proposals on
deadline day.

How do you submit a proposal? Go here
<http://eld.montclair.edu/eld-call-for-proposals-faq/> to read some brief
instructions on what we need in your submission, and then go to URL and
supply that information. We’ll be in touch to confirm your submission was
complete, and then let you know within a couple weeks the response from our
reviewers.

Accepted conference presentations have the potential to be included as
proceedings in the Journal of Emerging Learning Design
<http://eldj.montclair.edu/>.
