UNDERGRADUATE proposals:
We invite proposals for "A Gateway to Professionalization: An Undergraduate Researcher Poster Session" at CCCC 2012, March 21-24, in St. Louis, Missouri. This poster session, organized by a team of undergraduate students and faculty, will showcase the field's undergraduate research by featuring up to 20 students from a variety of undergraduate programs in professional writing, writing studies, rhetoric and composition, and related programs.
At the 2011 CCCC, several participants discussed ways to encourage undergraduate participation at CCCC-- to attract younger members who are contemplating further education and careers in rhetoric and composition, to extend the organization's diversity, and to examine and support the growing presence of undergraduate research in rhetoric, composition, and communication. In the context of these ongoing discussions, this poster session showcases the field's undergraduate researchers and their projects.
To be considered for this poster session, please
write a one-page proposal and email it to
jmoore28@elon.edu<mailto:jmoore28@elon.edu> by December 1st. Your
proposal should: (1) explain your research topic, (2) indicate the
anticipated status of the project by March 2012 (note that projects may just
be beginning, or still in-progress, when you submit this proposal), and (3)
discuss your interest in sharing your research with CCCC attendees.
Proposals will be reviewed by the Showcase Team identified below, and
applicants will be notified by December 15th.
To prepare for the poster session, the selected undergraduate presenters
will be invited to participate in two online sessions; the first will share
design strategies for research posters, and the second will provide an
opportunity for peer review of poster drafts. The Showcase Team also will
share strategies for securing funding to help the participants attend the
conference.

The APS FEd (Forum on Education) is helping organize (along with SPS) a special Focus Session that will feature "paired presentations" on undergrad research - with faculty and students working together to do a good job at both describing the research and also conveying some joys and challenges of how the mentoring works for them. See link below from APS March Meeting - Abstract submissions - with sorting categories for Focus sessions (this is Focus category 24.1.1 for abstracts). The two back-to-back paired papers will have a total of 24 minutes (12 min each) - including questions.
Research Collaboration Between Mentors and Undergraduate Students
Undergraduate research often occurs within the context of the challenges and rewards of the mentoring relationship between faculty and student. This session provides a setting for coupled presentations by faculty-student pairs. The expectation is that the faculty member will provide the broader physics background of an undergraduate research area, and convey how undergraduate students have profitably worked within it. The student presenter will describe the results of the research completed while being mentored by the faculty member.
To participate in this session, two abstracts are required. Each should include the faculty-student pair as co-authors, with the presenter being first author in each case. Unless otherwise requested, the faculty presentation will precede the student presentation.
Event Date: February 27 - March 2, 2011 Boston MA
Submission Deadline: November 11, 2011 by 5pm (CLOSED)
