@teacherphili @fionaljp Hello Phil :) Welcome #ELTchat |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:05:22 |
@angelos_bollas Indeed! #ELTchat Interested in topic but know nothing! |

@teacherphili @angelos_bollas Hi Phil #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:06:06 |
@fionaljp You? You are a regular conference attendee, aren't you? #ELTchat |
| teacherphili |
2017-11-01T19:06:21 |
Are we talking solely about proposals to #IATEFL annual conference? #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:06:39 |
@teacherphili No, Conference proposals in general #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:07:12 |
We are talking conference proposals in general but #IATEFL people are welcome to join us :) #ELTchat https://t.co/uNKueKMa9E |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:08:04 |
@angelos_bollas No, I wish! Only ever been to two Pre-conferences, for the day each time #ELTchat - very good, loved both. |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:08:27 |
Many people, especially new(er) colleagues are a bit daunted by the proposal-writing process #ELTchat Any experiences to share? |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:08:45 |
@fionaljp Plus the conference in Dublin the other year ;) #ELTchat |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:09:45 |
@angelos_bollas That was one and the other was Glasgow - oh, and Manchester!!! #ELTchat |

It is this month, isn't it? #ELTchat https://t.co/g1sKIoJnLt |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:12:54 |
@angelos_bollas Submitted my first proposal recently - quite difficult to follow the brief and stay within the word limit #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:13:11 |
What are the things you take into account before writing a conference proposal, then? #ELTchat https://t.co/g1sKIoJnLt |
| teacherphili |
2017-11-01T19:13:45 |
@angelos_bollas Can't remember exact date but yes think it is. #bitesnails #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:13:52 |
@fionaljp What was particularly difficult with following the brief? Many people say that, actually. #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:14:01 |
@angelos_bollas Hey #ELTchat! On a bus at the centre of Athens - 'stuck' is the word I think |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:14:28 |
@Kryftina Welcome Christina :) #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:15:55 |
@angelos_bollas Nice to join again - should be doing that more often #ELTchat |
| teacherphili |
2017-11-01T19:16:39 |
Did my proposal over summer. Lots of rewrites on abstract & summary. Getting an experienced mentor was a key factor b4 submitting #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:16:52 |
Here's a webinar on how to write an effective proposal (for IATEFL) https://t.co/PZkTgOmdhs #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:17:19 |
@teacherphili What were the areas that you needed help with? #ELTchat |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:17:20 |
@angelos_bollas Mangaging to say what you want to say in a concise way and including all points in brief #ELTchat in e.g.100words |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:18:22 |
I find very difficult to say 1. What the topic is about and 2. What will the attendees do/get in 100 words. #ELTchat https://t.co/y6hxLVjMER |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:18:39 |
Hi everyone! I have tons of accepted abstracts and proposals in my hard drive #eltchat may i should upload somewhere |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:19:28 |
@angelos_bollas My facts & relev. data + Audience first #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:19:54 |
but no recipe #eltchat Was checking the web just now - tons of pages with advice nothing concrete or useful tome |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:20:37 |
@angelos_bollas Yes, but I can see a necessary step #ELTchat Probably not a lot about process is easy! |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:21:13 |
@Kryftina @angelos_bollas Hello #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:22:16 |
No recipe and each conference is different and looks for different 'styles' #ELTchat This also difficult https://t.co/xOuO8x3LM4 |
| teacherphili |
2017-11-01T19:23:34 |
@angelos_bollas Making sure that proposal was relevant, appealing and would be informative. #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:25:36 |
I think for the abstract, a good idea is to go through a past conference book and see which ones drew you in &why #eltchat this is personal |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:25:55 |
True - Especially in the States - very different mindset #ELTchat https://t.co/gwBePmfUxP |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:26:35 |
That's a good point - And most of those are available online these days #ELTchat https://t.co/uHAqCSKU65 |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:27:34 |
Then for the main summary describe the broad sections or parts of your talk & open or close with how u think it benefits audience #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:27:40 |
@angelos_bollas Yes - good thing though, we need experience in different mindsets #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:27:43 |
When reading/selecting abstracts, I am a bit hesitant with people who write things like "I will share my experience..." etc. #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:28:37 |
I also try to include different patterns of interaction in summary section. Some confs don't like lecture-mode talk… https://t.co/ZPzjcJ6WAC |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:29:56 |
Most of us don't present research which has a different layout and direction - so think of it like a lesson plan :-) #ELTchat |
| teacherphili |
2017-11-01T19:30:56 |
@angelos_bollas Yes, all very well presenting your own practice or research but what are the so-called take-aways for the audience. #eltchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:31:27 |
@Marisa_C You mean for the summary? A plan-like summary shows we've thought through what we are talking about - jus… https://t.co/UGw0eJzJTZ |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:31:55 |
@teacherphili Very true! That's my concern, as well. #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:32:24 |
@angelos_bollas There might be sth there about ownership - to me 3rd person comes more naturally, but could be wrong #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:32:47 |
@angelos_bollas yes for the summary #eltchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:34:11 |
@Kryftina things like "this talk aims..." etc. ? #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:36:18 |
What could conference organisers do to help us with this process? #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:37:02 |
@teacherphili @angelos_bollas Presentation format plays a part, doesn't it? When attending a talk, I expect at leas… https://t.co/v0fHoaBEYd |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:37:45 |
@Kryftina @teacherphili Is this something you would write in the abstract though? Not enough words for all the info :-/ #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:38:09 |
@teacherphili talked about a mentorship scheme - other ideas? #ELTchat https://t.co/qQixjw3mty |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:38:22 |
@angelos_bollas Yes, of that sort - too impersonal perhaps, depending on where I'm applying #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:38:57 |
@Kryftina Could you explain 'depends on where I am applying' a bit please? #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:39:48 |
@angelos_bollas @teacherphili I'd certainly try to. V difficult, I totally agree. #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:39:59 |
Conferences organisers do not print summaries, just abstracts - too costly.BUT w/ electronic publications, now poss… https://t.co/YzY1zTPEiB |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:41:55 |
@angelos_bollas If it's local or for a conf I've applied before - we get accustomed to expectations #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:42:21 |
Who is your intended audience when writing a proposal? The proposals committee or the conference attendees? #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |

@angelos_bollas Both. Sth that w/ make goals clear & so I won't have to write dif versions. #ELTchat |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T19:49:07 |
Are there any tips for first-timers? #ELTchat |
| Kryftina |
2017-11-01T19:49:43 |
@angelos_bollas When I'm reviewing, I look for the same. #ELTchat |

It is about time we end this #ELTchat but we will be on slowburn mode for the next 24hours. Looking forward to contributions |

2017-11-01T19:57:15 |
If there is anyone here willing to write a summary, please send me a tweet ;) #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:57:28 |
I always try to use clear section headings in my summaries - summary readers are ppl like u and me - make it easier for them #eltchat |
| fionaljp |
2017-11-01T19:57:43 |
@angelos_bollas #ELTchat Just Googled and this looks useful: https://t.co/aUD0EDAZFs |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T19:59:29 |
by @JoeMcVeigh :-) I like the one abt not writing online - have lost a couple of summaries that way #eltchat https://t.co/0TbYgLduI1 |
| angelos_bollas |
2017-11-01T20:00:37 |
@Marisa_C @JoeMcVeigh Haha - Same here. Also, I don't have a record which is a pity. #ELTchat |
| Marisa_C |
2017-11-01T20:00:50 |
@JoeMcVeigh do add any extra words of wisdom abt good conf proposals in #ELTchat #slowburn more if u have any :-) |
