Presentation types

The conference program features invited keynote speakers and parallel streamed sessions. Presentations can be made in the two formats:

Paper

This is a 20 minute speaker presentation followed by 5 minutes of questions and answers.

All sessions are chaired. The chair's role is to introduce the presenter and keep the presentation within the time limit.

We recommend against reading entire papers, and suggest you use visual supports such as Powerpoint and/or provide handouts and to assist delivery. Multiple-authored presentations are welcome.

Showcase

Participants need to take initiative in conceiving and designing the session. This is an opportunity to present a 10 minute digital projection (still and /or moving image with sound) that showcases process, work in progress, student work or aspects of teaching and learning. Format requirements are either Powerpoint sequence (with or without sound) or moving image files (.mov, .avi, .mpeg, .wmv).

A session will include a number of showcases grouped thematically. Presenters will not speak to the work until the 15 minute chaired question and answer period at the end of the session.

Please note that the time limit will be strictly adhered to.

Submission process:

Submissions close on Sunday 18 October. Notifications to speakers will be made by Tuesday 27 October. All submissions will be reviewed by conference organisers, who are staff from the National Gallery of Australia (Learning and Access section).

Submissions should be emailed to nvaec@nga.gov.au
