To meet students’ needs, educators know that they cannot teach the way they have in the past; they must update their instruction and design learning experiences that are both mentally and physically active. Adhering to these principles, Kappa Delta Pi seeks conference presenters who will engage attendees in innovative ways, create highly interactive sessions, and provide opportunities for application and use of the information. Kappa Delta Pi strives to ensure that 2013 Convo attendees have learning opportunities which provide meaningful and timely information that advances their professional skills and understanding. Following peer review, the highest-quality presentations that best fit the framework of the Convocation will be added to the program. Though the number of presentations is limited, KDP encourages a wide variety of submissions for each type of opportunity to present.
