Submissions

Extended deadline for submissions: March 10, 2024

 

Submission types

Symposia (duration: 90 minutes) provide an opportunity to present research on one topic, often from multiple perspectives, compiling a coherent set of papers for discussion. They involve 3-4 presenters and one discussant from at least two different countries and are directed by a chairperson.

Paper sessions (duration: 90 minutes) are oral presentations of four papers, followed by a discussion with the audience.
The duration of each oral presentation is 15 minutes plus 5 minutes for questions and discussion. Paper presentations are submitted individually and are grouped into sessions by topic.

Poster sessions (duration: 90 minutes) are interactive and structured (i.e. including 3-minute introductions), allowing researchers to visualize their work and opportunities for interaction and discussion. Research at its earlier stages as well as more advanced research is suitable for poster sessions. Poster presentations are submitted individually and are grouped into sessions by topic.

Submission requirements

  • All presenting authors of accepted papers and all participants in accepted sessions (presenting authors, chairs, and discussants) are expected to register and attend the EARLI SIG 5 and SIG 28 Conference and be present at the scheduled sessions.
