Proposals should also be grounded in relevant literature and research wherever possible.
- Contribution to the conference topic and themes;
- Clarity and coherence of the proposal, including title;
- Contribution to practice, scholarship and evaluation of educational development in further and higher education, reflecting on and informing the future of educational development;
- Likely value of session aims and outcomes to participants;
- Consistency with the SEDA Values;
- Appropriateness of session structure and specified timings in relation to session type and outcomes; and
- Active and productive engagement of participants.
SEDA invites proposals from students In UK HE or FE to deliver short papers (15 minutes) to this conference. Papers should relate to the general conference themes.
Support from SEDA
SEDA has agreed to provide financial support for three student papers from three different UK institutions (only one student per institution will be funded) under the following conditions:
- One student presenter per institution will have all conference fees waived and be provided with subsistence/accommodation for the whole conference.
- Each student’s home institution must agree to cover the student’s travel costs.
- Each student’s home institution must agree to fund at least one full conference delegate to support the student presenter and act as ‘sponsor’. The staff delegate will be expected to advise and support the student in preparing his/her presentations but will not have any role in delivery at the conference. The bursary cannot be awarded until the sponsor has registered for the conference.
