CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR THREE TESOL 2002 ELECTRONIC VILLAGE SPECIAL EVENTS
     TESOL 2002: "Language and the Human Spirit"
     April 9-11, 2002
     Salt Lake City, Utah USA
     INTERNET FAIR, SOFTWARE FAIR and DEVELOPERS SHOWCASE

***DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS:  January 15, 2002***
You are invited to submit a proposal for participation in one or more of
these TESOL 2002 CALL Interest Section Special Events, according to the
guidelines below. Submit a separate proposal for each demonstration you
wish to be considered for. You are welcome to submit proposals to more than
one event, and it is possible to have more than one proposal accepted
(depending on space availability and quality of the submission). Windows
and Macintosh equipment will be available at no charge, along with CD ROM
drives, Internet connections, and (for the Showcase only) projection
equipment. Plan to bring a minimum of 100 handouts per Fair/Showcase
acceptance slot -- these are
very popular events!

WHAT HAPPENS AT THE FAIRS:
Presenters have approximately 20-30 minutes to demonstrate their material.
Participants walk around and drop in and out of demonstrations, thus
precluding highly structured presentations. A demonstration may be repeated
a second time (an additional 20 to 25 minutes), if interest warrants and
space allows. You can submit a proposal to either Fair online at
http://www2.iei.uiuc.edu/Evproposals/.

WHAT HAPPENS AT THE SHOWCASE:
There is one presenter at a time, demonstrating her/his program. Seating is
provided for the audience. See below for how to submit a proposal to the
Developers Showcase.

_____INTERNET FAIR_____
Coordinator: John Skinner     Email:  [log in to unmask]
WHAT IS IT? Internet Fair is a TESOL event intended for demonstrations by
teachers or teacher-developers who have used Internet-based programs,
websites, or activities with students. Demonstrations may highlight student
projects or activities or curriculum created for students or educators.
PROPOSALS
Please submit your proposal(s) for the Internet Fair online at
http://www2.iei.uiuc.edu/Evproposals/


_____SOFTWARE FAIR_____
Coordinator:  Susanne McLaughlin     Email: [log in to unmask]
WHAT IS IT?  The Software Fair is an event for teachers to share how they
use different types of software - in innovative, clever, or just plain
efficient ways - in English instruction or assessment during in-class or
out-of-class activities.  The software may be used as a part of the
classroom time, computer lab time, or as a homework activity to supplement
English language instruction. In the past, teachers/presenters have shown
how they have used prepackaged software such as Focus on Grammar, Word
Attack, Grolier Encyclopedia, Myst, Testmaster, or Phraze Craze for
increasing skills in vocabulary, reading, writing, and speaking &
understanding. Presenters will need to bring the software they are
demonstrating.  PC and Macintosh
computers will be available.

Please submit your proposal(s) for the Software Fair online at

_____DEVELOPERS SHOWCASE_____
Coordinator:  John E. Lackstrom    Email:  [log in to unmask]
WHAT IS IT? The Developers Showcase is one of several ways in which the
CALL-IS disseminates information about computers and computer-assisted
instruction to the ESL/EFL professional community. The Showcase provides an
opportunity for the designers of ESL/EFL software to display their work,
and for potential users, software developers, and marketers to examine and
react to it. We especially welcome projects produced by teachers for their
own students or projects produced under development grants.

This Showcase includes materials in the following two categories:
1. disk-based software, including floppy-disk, hard disk, and CD-ROMs.
2. web-based software, including both programs that can be accessed directly
from the web and those that can be downloaded.

The Showcase is not a commercial venue. Only work that is not yet on the
market will be considered.
The following types of software are not acceptable for the Showcase:
  * Software that is already contracted with a publisher
  * Software that has been offered for sale independently, or which the
presenter plans to sell independently, including by subscription or as
shareware
  * Software given away free to promote a commercial interest

PROPOSALS
