Call for CALI Conference speakers
The possibilities of using tech in legal education are endless - net access is nearly ubiquitous, wireless and cheap. Disk space is cheap and abundant. Tools are powerful and (many) free or open source. But life is an onion and so when we peel back one layer of problems, we reveal a different layer of challenges. Our challenge is to prioritize our limited resources of time, skill and attention and apply them to our institutional goals - better legal education. How we translate our unbound opportunities into real-world projects, systems and customer service is how we will be measured.
Come to CALICon11 and learn how law schools and your colleagues are meeting that challenge.
For 21 years, the CALI Conference has organized its schedule at nearly the last minute in order to bring the most relevant and up-to-date presentations to attendees. This year is no different and we are looking for people with strong opinions, great ideas, interesting projects and useful advice. Come and share and be challenged. If you are willing and able to speak, your conference registration fee is FREE!
All sessions are 1 hour long. Everything will be recorded and posted later. We are looking into whether or not some sessions will be webcast.
To propose a session, just
- visit the conference website,
- login with your CALI account, and
- click on the “Propose a session” link.
Sessions need to be submitted by Friday April 1, 2011. All sessions need to be submitted through the CALI conference website. We are going to do something different with selecting sessions this year: you get to vote for sessions you would like to see on the conference agenda. Starting on Monday February 28, 2011, voting will be opened and will remain open until Friday April 29, 2011. To vote you will just need to login to the conference website and vote for the session you would like to see on the agenda. You do not need to be registered for the conference to vote.
We will notify speakers via email by May 6, 2011 if their session is approved. The listing of approved sessions will be posted on the conference website on May 6, 2011. Conference hotel and registration information is also available at the conference website.
- $395 for attendees from CALI member law schools
