Call for Proposals Submission Form

At the Faculty Best Practices Showcase, New Jersey faculty will present uses of technology and new instructional methodologies in Pre-Kindergarten through Higher Education, post-secondary and healthcare related education. The focus of the showcase is not limited to technology; new pedagogical approaches such as collaborative learning are also important.

Faculty are encouraged to present a range of new applications and learning activities for face-to-face, hybrid and fully online courses. The goal of the presentations should be to allow the other faculty attendees to employ innovative teaching methods and technologies in their courses. All breakout sessions will be approximately 30 minutes in length.

We invite you to submit a proposal to present at the 9th Annual Faculty Best Practices Showcase

Proposals must be submitted by January 22, 2008.
