Opportunities

The Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) invites you to submit a proposal to present at the 2018 CSTA Annual Conference. This event will be held July 7-10, 2018 in Omaha, Nebraska.

Why present at CSTA 2018?

The CSTA annual conference is the only CS conference specifically dedicated to meeting the needs of K-12 computer science educators. Come network with your peers, present your great ideas, and learn best practices.

The CSTA 2018 Program Committee seeks proposal submissions related to the practice of teaching and learning computer science and information technology in K-12. This year the conference is seeking 3 hour workshops; 1 hour sessions; 20 minute mini-sessions; and 1 hour Birds of a Feather sessions.

Proposal submission requires presenter and presentation information including a brief overview/abstract used to inform attendees about the session; as well as a PDF providing more detailed information about the session.

The deadline for proposals is midnight (Hawaiian time) on November 26, 2017. Review of proposals will occur shortly thereafter and notification of the program committee’s decisions will be made in December/January 2018.

All submissions will be evaluated on the following criteria:

• appropriateness and relevancy for professional development for K-12 computing;
• feasibility of the proposal;
• timeliness of the topic;
• writing and presentation;
• completeness of the submitted information; and
• consideration for the breadth and balance of topics at the conference.

Deadline for proposals is midnight (Hawaiian time) on November 26, 2017.
