What Types of Presentations Can I Expect?
AWP offers many different opportunities to share research and creative projects. In addition, AWP often has upwards of 30 CEU’s available!
-
50-minute, interactive sessions designed to share skills, knowledge, and/or experience in research, issue-oriented, or learning/practice areas.
-
50-80-minute facilitated dialogues to bring together those working on similar problems, issues, or concepts to discuss new ideas and to engage in problem-solving. Presenters share their ideas and facilitate group discussion.
-
50 minutes, up to 3 presentations, grouped together regarding a shared topic of interest. Sessions must include a chair who will facilitate the session and may also have a discussant. A discussant ties together the themes/information from the talk and a chair maintains time and wrangles the speakers. Time should be made available for Q+A.
-
10-12 minute presentations of theoretical issues, research data, clinical case material, treatment methods, program descriptions, etc. Individual papers will be grouped together by the program committee on similar themes. Time should be made available for Q+A.
-
20-minute feedback sessions designed for authors to share works in progress (could be research studies, clinical approaches, teaching activities, or other applications) and receive collaborative feedback from attendees. Works can be at any stage of development. Presenters briefly share their work and request specific feedback. The conference organizers may group WIPs on similar topics in joint sessions.
-
Visually inviting presentations of an individual study or project, including graphs, tables, pictures, etc. Additionally, the poster author(s) should be available for the discussion of their work during the poster session.
