In keeping with the goals of SOTAB to disseminate new knowledge in the areas of teaching and research, the SOTAB Program Committee would like to encourage you to present a poster at our next meeting. Posters on both research or teaching pedagogy will be considered for acceptance. We encourage you to "reuse" posters that were presented at other recent scientific meetings, but posters that were displayed at previous SOTAB meetings will not be accepted. Remember, posters are a great way to disseminate knowledge and obtain feedback from other researchers.

To submit posters that address pedagogical or research scholarship, please follow the procedures outlined below:

a. Author information (name, institution, mailing address, email address)

e. A conclusion

In qualifying abstracts for acceptance, the Program Committee will consider:
