We are excited to welcome proposals for the 2009 Southwest Teaching & Learning Conference (SWTLC), sponsored by Texas A&M University-Kingsville System Center-San Antonio. Our primary mission is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge about teaching and learning in theory as well as through classroom best practices. We invite proposals from any field including but not limited to: Business, Education, Arts & Sciences, as well as technical and vocational programs. While our primary emphasis is on college and university teaching and learning, we welcome proposals from all scholars. Our conference aims to facilitate a discussion of the particular issues associated with educating traditionally underserved student populations. We hope to bring together scholars from not only the Southwest region of the United States, but also from around the country. We invite you to share the knowledge and wisdom you have gained through your own research and inquiry. Together, we can extend educational opportunities not only to students, but also faculty, scholars, administrators, and others involved in teaching and learning.

You can download a Call for Proposals here. Deadline for submissions is January 5, 2009. Proposals in a variety of formats are accepted including Research Proposals, Panel Presentations, Teacher/Classroom Workshops, and Multimedia/Poster Presentations. Guidelines for proposal submission can be found in the Call for Proposals.
