Types of sessions:

1. Short Session/ Paper (10 minutes). This format allows for a presentation (including literature review of recent research) on a relevant topic. Short Sessions are oral summaries with occasional references to notes or text which describe and discuss what the presenter is doing or has done. They often include visual aids and handouts.

2. Panel (60 minutes). A panel involves both a formal presentation and participant discussion. Panel members generally give 10-15 minute presentation under the guidance of a chairperson who moderates the discussion and summarizes the session at its conclusion. Panel organizers should submit a summary outlining the topic and objectives.

3. Demonstration (30 minutes). A demonstration is used for showing rather than telling about a technique. The presenter’s statement of theory should take no longer than 10 minutes. Often the presenter models teaching techniques, usually has handouts and/or audiovisual aids. The summary should include a brief statement of the central purpose and description of the presentation.

4. Workshops (60 minutes). A workshop involves very little lecturing; it mainly emphasizes participation in a carefully structured activity. The leader/leaders work with the group, helping them to solve a problem or develop a specific teaching or research technique. The workshop summary should include a statement of the goal(s), a synopsis of the theory behind it, and a description of the tasks to be performed during the workshop.

5. Poster Session. In a poster session, the presenter makes her/his own visual poster of an activity or concept, and then explains it to individuals or small groups during the time the exhibit is on display.
