Session Information

Sessions are 1 full hour long (60 minutes).

We are planning to hold Math in Action as a hybrid conference, with the option to attend in person at GVSU's Allendale Campus, while also offering select sessions online via Zoom to remote participants. Please note that all presenters are required to present in-person at GVSU's Allendale Campus — there is no option to present remotely. There are two modality options for presentation proposals, both of which require in-person presenting:

  • In-person only: You will present in-person at GVSU's Allendale Campus, and your presentation will only be accessible to in-person participants.
  • Hybrid: You will present in-person at GVSU's Allendale Campus, and your presentation will also be accessible to online participants via Zoom, in addition to in-person participants.

Before proposing a hybrid presentation, please make sure your presentation will be accessible to both in-person and online audiences. After considering this, if you think your presentation would work well in a hybrid setting, we encourage you to select this option, as it will allow more sessions to be accessible to all participants.

Lastly, please note that while we will do our best to accommodate your modality selection, we may need to make changes based on the schedule. We will contact you directly should any changes be needed.


Title: Please keep short - one line. Indicate pedagogical focus and mathematics content in the title.

Grade range:

To what grades does your session most directly apply? Teachers strongly prefer tightly focused grade bands, so please keep your session as focused as possible. If your talk is applicable to a wider range of grades, please consider submitting more than one proposal.


Is your presentation suitable for more than one grade range? If so, please check all ranges that apply below. If not, then please move on to the next question.




Description:
Enter a brief description of your session. Please indicate a specific mathematical focus in your description.

Support, Technology, and Special Requests

The following question asks you about the technology requirements of your session. We will clearly mark these requirements in the printed program.

  • Phones or tablets: Choose this if you would like participants to visit a web site or do other simple actions, which are appropriate for phones or tablets. We will add this request to your session's description.
  • Laptops: If your session requires more detailed actions that require a laptop (such as running a more complicated applet on a web page or working with files), please select this. We will add this request in your session's description, and we will provide a limited number of Chromebooks (lightweight laptops with web access) for participants who don't have appropriate technology available.
  • Other: If you need participants to bring special technology that is not covered by these options, please enter your needs in the "Special requests" box below.


Active Learning Rooms

There will be two active learning rooms available for presentations, featuring movable chairs and tables (on wheels) and extra whiteboard space. If you would like to request an active learning room for your presentation, please describe below how you would use the active learning room features.

Special requests

Use the box below to make requests for rooms, technology, etc. that your session will require. We will accommodate special requests if possible and let you know if we are unable to do so.

Biographical Notes

Please upload a 2-page resume or vita. This allows us to offer your session for SCECH Credit.
