How is the ELD program determined?
Usually, the Program Chair for the NEXT years conference will solicit ideas just before the conference. That person will also request ideas from attendees at the conference. Part of the Extended Executive Committees meeting on the last day of the conference will cover the program ideas, and determine the top priorities. Committee members will also identify possible moderators and speakers. The Program Chair follows through on these suggestions. The Program Chair may also send out a call for papers, particularly on the identified topics. ASEE sets the deadlines– by September session moderators are identified, by December most presenters are identified.
