Call for panel proposals
The APA Committee on the Teaching of Philosophy invites proposals for a panel on teaching philosophy in non traditional settings at the Eastern Division meeting of the APA, December 27-30, 2014 in Philadelphia, PA.
Panel presentations could be on teaching philosophy in, for example, community libraries, prisons, elder hostels, or indeed in settings we haven’t even thought of to list.
We are interested in proposals about presentations on pedagogical information and insights, on the particular intellectual challenges these settings present, and especially, on what you have learned about teaching philosophy, and about philosophy, from your experiences.
An upcoming issue of the Newsletter on Teaching Philosophy will also focus on this topic. Panelists will be invited to submit their papers (in the proper form, whose guidelines can be found online in the Newsletter itself.

Those not presenting may also submit papers on the topic to the Newsletter. Deadline for paper submissions to the Newsletter: January 23, 2015.
Both individual submissions as well as proposals for several panelists together are welcome. Please send a title, an abstract of no more than 500 words, and your name, and email address to Katheryn Doran at[email protected]. Deadline is June 30, 2014.
