WHERE
108 English Building (see

DESCRIPTION
For an audience of EOTU students from UIUC and
ISU, as well as other interested faculty members and
students, current EOTU students will present their inquiry
questions and findings. Light refreshments will be served.
ALL CURRENT EOTU STUDENTS
ARE INVITED TO PRESENT. WE WANT YOU (YES, YOU)!
WHY YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO
THIS
Participation in student conferences like this
gives you the opportunity to practice speaking and
presentation skills you’re likely to value now and in the
future. It also builds your resume. More than that, the
opportunity to talk and listen in this informal setting
gives you an opportunity to learn what students in other
classes are doing and thinking: the swapping and discussion
of ideas and methods can help you firm up your ideas,
identify new approaches to your topic, and enjoy having
your ideas taken seriously by others.
DETAILS
We ask participants to speak for 5-7 minutes
(no longer than that!) on their topics. We expect to
provide a projection screen with a live Internet connection,
so you can refer to your current Inquiry Page (or use
PowerPoint, or display images relevant to your project, and
so on), but the heart of your presentation should address
your primary questions, the methods you’re using to answer
these questions, and your findings so far. To the extent
that it’s possible, we will try to group students with
similar lines of inquiry in the same time blocks; we’re
leaving plenty of time open for discussion and questions.
TO REGISTER
EOTU has created an iLabs
for this conference. To register to participate, you
will need to provide your name, your email account, and your
topic, and then tell us the times you prefer to present,
and the times you can’t present. You can
use the List Tool on the site to provide this information:
if you have trouble using this tool, email the required information
to Gardner.
Please note that the deadline for registration
is Monday, November 28, 2005 (the first day of classes
after Fall Break).
