FOR
POSTER SESSION
ASSA JANUARY 2008
The Committee on Economic Education will sponsor a poster session at the 2008 ASSA Meetings in New Orleans devoted to active learning strategies across the economics curriculum. Instead of papers, session presenters will prepare large visual summaries of their work mounted in an exhibition room to allow presenters to talk directly with participants. Although we encourage presenters to include evidence that their strategy enhances learning, we do not require quantifiable evidence. We suggest that presenters emphasize the originality of their strategy and provide sufficient information so that participants may apply the technique in their own classrooms.
Proposals should describe the teaching strategy and explain how it will be described in the poster.
Proposals are limited to two pages and due by 15 May 2007.
Please send proposals to:
