2005 ANNUAL CONFERENCE
CALL FOR PRESENTERS
We are now accepting proposals from members and friends
of the Foundation and International Montessori Council
who would like to present at next November's Annual
Conference. In 2005, it will be held once again in Clearwater
Beach, Florida November 4 through 6.
All proposals must
be submitted by email to timseldin@aol.com
no later than March 1, 2005. |
Each proposal must include:
1. The presenter(s) name(s), address(es), phone number(s),
email(s), and a brief bio for each person presenting.
2. The title of each presentation
3. A brief description of each presentation in 1 to
3 sentences.
4. Any special needs for the presentation, including
AV equipment, special room set up, special materials,
etc.
5. Any limitations that the presenter(s) have on when
the presentation(s) can be scheduled (for example, if
a presenter has to leave Clearwater Saturday night,
we obviously need to know that we cannot schedule that
presentation for Sunday).
6. A statement that you have read and can agree to
the following conditions:
a. The Montessori Foundation and IMC cannot offer presenters
an honorarium, nor can we cover the cost of transportation,
lodging, or meals. Like most organizations, other than
when we bring in an outside keynote speaker, our conferences
assume that presenters are either IMC members who would
normally be attending the conference anyway, or that
they are friends of Montessori education who wish to
share information, promote themselves within the Montessori
community, or to publicize a program that they represent.
b . Presenters are asked to submit an article or essay,
as well as any worksheets, that they will want attendees
to have for their presentation. These may be reprinted
in Tomorrow's Child or Montessori Leadership, but remain
the copyrighted work of the presenter.
c . We normally audio tape presentations, and we will
ask each presenter to give us permission to tape and
make these tapes available for purchase to attendees
and other IMC members.
