Call for Proposals: 2020 Teaching Hub Poster Session
\nEastern\, Central\, and Pacific APA Meetings
\n \;
\nThe APA Committee on the \;Teaching of Philosophy (CTP) and the American Association of Philosophy Teachers (AAPT) invite abstracts for the three AAPT-APA \;Teaching \;Hub \;poster sessions to be held throughout the spring of 2020.
\n\nEach Teaching \;Hub \;includes a reception and poster session featuring both independent work by undergraduate students and innovative work in the \;teaching \;of philosophy by faculty and graduate students. If you have something of your own to share with your colleagues&mdash\;a new \;teaching \;technique\, course proposal\, assessment strategy\, in-class activity\, or SoTL research finding&mdash\;please consider submitting an abstract to one of the \;Teaching \;Hub \;poster sessions below. Please also encourage \;undergraduates \;who have completed independent work in philosophy this past academic year and undergraduates who are working on summer research projects in philosophy currently to submit their abstracts.
\n \;
\nWe are looking for proposals for either two kinds of posters:
\n1. \;  \;  \;1. \;Undergraduate students
\n \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;Posters featuring independent research by undergraduates (e.g. thesis\, \;
\n \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;  \;independent study). \;Deadline: November 15\, 2019
\n2. \;  \;  \;2. \;Faculty or graduate students
\nPosters featuring pedagogical innovations or Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). \;Deadline: August 15\, 2019
\n \;
\nPlease e-mail abstracts of no more than \;300 words as PDF attachments\, \;prepared for anonymous review\, to Kaitlin Pettit (
You may submit a proposal to more than one poster session. However\, we will only accept distinct proposals to different poster sessions. If you would like to submit the same proposal to more than one poster session\, please include in your email a ranking of your preferred meeting locations.
\n
The \;Teaching \;Hub \;aims to be an especially inclusive and collegial event\, \;designed to recognize exceptional \;teaching \;and mentorship. Faculty members who have organized a trip with a group of undergraduates to one of the APA divisional meetings\, in order to present work at the \;Teaching \;Hub\, have described the experience as transformative for their students.
We look forward to receiving your submissions.

The AAPT-APA \;Teaching \;Hub \;is a series of interactive workshops and conversations designed specifically for philosophers and created to celebrate \;teaching \;within the context of the APA divisional meetings. Jointly organized by the CTP and the AAPT\, the \;Teaching \;Hub \;aims to offer a range of high-quality and inclusive development opportunities that address the \;teaching \;of philosophy at all levels\, pre-college through graduate school.
Important note: \;Neither the APA nor the AAPT can offer funding to \;Teaching \;Hub \;participants for travel or lodging. Moreover\, to present at the \;Teaching \;Hub\, participants must both join the APA and register for the appropriate meeting (less than $30 total for undergraduates). Please alert your students to these facts before they apply and consider reserving institutional funding for their participation.
