Week 6

Preparing for the conference (weeks 6-8)

While we are gathering our feedback on your paper in the two weeks here, you and fellow students need to discuss in detail how, practically, you are going to make this a successful conference, focusing on both the best ways you can participate, and how you can attract appropriate interested participants from elsewhere. Your second task, in the final week, is to revise and finalise your paper ready for the conference. Your final conference paper must submitted through Blackboard and loaded onto the conference website by Monday of Week 9 

(20 hours)

Stage 4: First of all, work out how to participate (commenting, linking, networking) Then move quickly to revise paper based on feedback and get it uploaded to conference site (also week 7/8)


Work together online as a group, both using blackboard and other online forums as appropriate to start discussing how to promote the conference to the wider community. 


Come to the seminar ready to discuss how to promote the conference and attendance and participation. Also how to participate in the conference effectively; how to network the conference
