We are now accepting Presenter Proposals for the 2023 Annual SENG Conference hosted by Villanova University from July 21–23, 2023. This year's theme is "Authentic Voices: Community & Belonging."
General Information
Please be sure that you are an active SENG member, through July 2023, before submitting your proposal. We will not accept proposals from nonmembers.
Presentations should be tailored for 60-minute sessions. Proposals will be selected by a review committee evaluating:
relevance to the social and emotional needs of the gifted;
diversity of topics (from previous years and within this year's submissions);
concepts grounded in literature and/or research; and
a proposal that addresses our theme, "Authentic Voices: Community & Belonging."
Once accepted, all breakout proposals will need to be pre-recorded and submitted according to the directions and timelines sent in the acceptance email. These will be shared in the conference app after the in-person event.
Proposals are due January 15, 2023. Proposal acceptance notifications will be sent out in February of 2023.
