Call for volunteers: Professionalism in Practice Conference
The second annual Professionalism in Practice Conference, "Setting the Standard: Creating High Quality Learning Experiences," will be held on August 12 in Coffman Memorial Union, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Help make this ground-breaking teacher research conference a success (and attend free!) by volunteering.
Two types of volunteers are needed:
- Session host: Introduce session and assist presenters with logistical issues as needed. Monitor time and ensure dedicated reflection time at the session’s end. Read proposal and any supporting information in advance, and keep discussion flowing if needed. Administer and collect session evaluations. Additional CEUs are available for outside preparation time. Please indicate your first, second, and third choice of sessions to facilitate.
- Conference host: Assist with greeting, registration, participant needs, and logistical issues as needed.
To volunteer, please email Sharon Ornelas at Sharon.Ornelas@mpls.k12.mn.us, indicating which type of volunteer opportunity you are interested in and the timeframe during which you would like to contribute: before, during, and/or after the conference (minimum 3 hours to have conference fee waived).
