CALL FOR PROPOSALS: RESEARCH POSTERS AND PRESENTATIONS
The Tennessee Music Education Association (TMEA) will accept research and best practice poster session proposals for its 63rd Annual Professional Development Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, April 28-29, 2022. In-service teachers, graduate students, university faculty, and others are encouraged to submit their work for consideration.
Research, regardless of paradigm (i.e., Quantitative, Qualitative, or Mixed Methods) that is either completed or in-progress on any topic relating to music teaching and learning will be considered. Research in related areas (e.g., theory or history) will also be considered if a significant connection to teaching and learning processes is evident. In-service teachers conducting action research in their classrooms are encouraged to submit these projects for consideration.
We welcome submissions of unpublished research in music education, reviews of literature, action research, and works in progress from TMEA members and out-of-Tennessee researchers. Topics related to music teaching and learning will be considered. Submissions for this conference may also have been accepted for publication but should not have appeared in print prior to the conference. Reports presented at other conferences are eligible if the audience was substantially different. A statement specifying the particulars of any prior presentations must be included with the submission.
Best Practice submissions should describe programs or practices that are effectively meeting important goals in music education (e.g., instructional strategies, assessment, innovative curriculum design, etc.). Proposals should include a specific justification and/or rationale for the program or practice, and a description of the context in which it has been implemented.
SUBMISSION PROCEDURES
All submissions should not have been published prior to the conference and must meet the Code of Ethics published in the Journal of Research in Music Education. Only electronic submissions will be accepted (in .pdf, .doc, or .docx format).
