The NAGC annual convention is the largest event devoted to gifted and talented children for classroom teachers, gifted/talented coordinators, school administrators, researchers, parents, college and university faculty, and others interested in the education of high-ability and high-potential learners. We invite you to submit presentation proposals.
Proposal Deadline is January 26, 2024
LOGIN INFORMATION
(The proposal submission site login is not the same as your NAGC website login or the Password or Access Key from previous submission years.)
The system will keep track of your progress, and you can return as many times as needed before the deadline to edit, add, withdraw, or revise your submission.
PROPOSAL AND PRESENTATION LIMITS
You may submit up to 3 proposals as the lead presenter. In the final program, an individual can participate in up to 3 presentations. This rule does not apply to NAGC Signature Series or Network Super Sunday Sessions which are invited presentations developed by the NAGC Convention Program Chair or Network Program Chair. It does include Poster Sessions.
PROPOSAL DESIGN AND ABSTRACT
To present the very best and most relevant content, organized in 16 Different Network Strands, NAGC's Annual Convention proposals require a 60 word description that describes the session content to convention attendees, a 250 word description for evaluation purposes*, and list up to 3 learning outcomes attendees will take away from the session. The 250 word description should include detailed information such as practical application to a particular audience(s), knowledge and tools that attendees will receive, and, if possible, links to background evidence/theory. Do not include the names of any presenters in the descriptions. *Empirical proposals submitted to the Research & Evaluation Network must include a scientific process description (900 words max).
NAGC has made equity and serving diverse students a priority. Proposal submissions that focus on equity and include information about, or educational strategies that address, traditionally underserved populations of gifted students are strongly encouraged.
GIFTED EDUCATION IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON
In order to solicit sessions that will be of particular interest to educators in Washington, Gifted Education Professionals have provided a document which may help guide proposal submitters as they prepare their submissions. In addition, if accepted as a concurrent or extended session, presenters will need to provide a current CV and answer questions related to clock hours for Washington State. These will be asked for and submitted after the selection process. Possible Session focus ideas.
PROPOSAL REVIEW
Expert reviewers from the NAGC Networks conduct blind reviews using the Proposal Rubric which is accessible on this site prior to submission. Network Program Chairs and National Convention Committee members finalize the selections to ensure the process is fair, balanced, and broadly representative of the field. You will receive notice via email in mid-May 2024 regarding the status of your proposal submission(s).
