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
Student presenters will be grouped in five panels each devoted to a different aspect of ethnographic inquiry. Each panel will last approximately 50 minutes (40 minutes of presentations and 10 minutes of questions and answers). We ask each participant to speak for no longer than 8 minutes on their topics. The heart of your presentation should address your primary questions, the methods you’re using to answer these questions, and your findings so far. Be prepared to field questions about your project, and to ask questions about other topics. Discussion, dialogue, and a free exchange of ideas is our primary objective.
TO REGISTER
EOTU has created an iLabs

will need to provide your name, your email account, and your

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

is Wednesday, Novemberl 15, 2006.
