CALL FOR PROPOSALS
The Summer Literacy Institute (SLI) committee at Hamline University would like to invite you to consider submitting a proposal for a breakout session presentation for our upcoming institute during the week of July 13–16, 2020. The annual four-day institute draws over 250 K-12 educators to our campus each July. At SLI, we invite teachers, educational leaders, students, and researchers to share about approaches to literacy education that promotes equity and inclusion in K-12 settings. Interactive programming from keynote speakers and local practitioners at the institute provide multiple opportunities for collaboration, reflection, and planning between attendees and presenters.
We have been working over the past several years to integrate equity and social justice into the design and practices of the institute. We are committed to offering a professional development experience that is created with all of our students and all of their teachers in mind--a space where we can learn from and with each other about inclusive literacy instruction, institutional and systemic forms of oppression, and how to take action in our respective schools, districts, and communities. The theme for the 2020 institute is Stories Matter: Listen, Believe, and Learn.
In addition to the keynote speaker each day, we invite local educators to offer afternoon breakout sessions. If you believe your work is aligned with the goals of the institute we would be thrilled to have you submit a proposal to do a breakout session at the 2020 Institute.
Breakout sessions are scheduled from 12:45- 2:00 and 2:15-3:30 p.m. on Monday - Wednesday.
Proposal selection will be completed by early April.
If selected to present, breakout session presenters are invited to attend one complimentary day of the Institute.
