Now Accepting Abstracts for 2025! Submissions are due February 3 by 11:59 p.m.

Faculty, educators, staff, and students (including distance education) are eligible to submit an abstract!

Submissions are welcome for the following:

• Oral presentations and innovations:
  These will be approximately 10-minute presentations followed by 5 minutes of Q&A. There will be more than one presentation in a session.
  
  
• Poster presentations

Submission categories for oral presentation and poster submissions:

• Works in progress: this is for authors who are seeking feedback for a project in its early stages. These projects will have a stated question and objectives of the scholarly activity. They could be projects in a stage of development, or with early findings, short-term outcomes or unexpected results.
  
  
• Completed research: this is for authors who have completed a scholarly project in education to allow them to showcase current/emerging work, present results or receive feedback.

Each abstract will be reviewed by FFAOE members who will be providing feedback on your submission (peer-reviewed). Submissions are due no later than February 3, 2025. Authors will be notified of their selection to participate in Educational Scholarship Day in March, 2025. 

The review committee may determine the format for the presentation of accepted abstracts based on reviews. Authors will have the option to indicate if they would only like to be considered for a specific category (poster, presentation or both).

All abstracts should include:

• A problem statement to define the importance of the work and how it addresses the problem or advances what is already known (clear goals/adequate presentation);
• Use of appropriate methodology to address the problem/educational practice (appropriate methods);
• The results of the intervention (if known) or significance to educational practice;
• Next steps/lessons learned (reflective critique). Required for completed research only.
