CALL FOR DESIGN EDUCATION SUBMISSIONS!
Design educators are exploring new frontiers in design research, practice and Canadian design history; innovation in teaching and learning; and, questioning the state of design education today. This conference will consist of engaging academic presentations, hands-on workshops, and an energetic PechaKucha presentation series of design project case studies.
We invite contributions on all topics and perspectives related to the past, present and future of design education. Presentations could be theoretical in nature, they could document a research project, they could detail a case study of an innovative course project, or they could present proposals for new educational models.

Submit an abstract of 300-500 words with 5-10 keywords in Microsoft Word .doc format. Please ensure that your submission has your name and school affiliation (individual or multi-author) on the first page with your keywords and abstract on the second page
TEACHING AND LEARNING PECHAKUCHA STYLE PRESENTATIONS:
Submit a 100 word description outlining your case study topic in Microsoft Word.doc format along with a single page project brief in pdf format.

Both the 100 word description and project brief submission must include your name and school affiliation.

We are also very interested in supporting alternative forms and processes through which to participate and stimulate debate and discussion, think: panels, roundtables, posters and workshops but feel free to move beyond!
