PRESENTATIONS- Presentations are opportunities to share research, best practices, promising practices, and experiences with your colleagues in the field.  Presentations run 75 minutes and involve a presenter or a few presenters sharing their expertise and/or experiences along with a projected slideshow.

ROUNDTABLES: New this year, roundtables are conversations (at round tables) on topics of interest. If you have a topic that you think would be of interest to others you can submit a proposal to “host a roundtable session.”  Roundtables are not conducive to slideshows, but roundtable hosts should have prepared discussion questions and be ready to facilitate the conversation in a way that draws in participants who attend the roundtable.
