Graduate Student Education Council (GSEC) Annual Graduate Student Education Research Symposium (AGSERS)
Thursday, March 26th 10:00AM - 5:00PM Stewart Center
Call for 2020 AGSERS Submissions
Symposium Overview:
The Graduate Student Education Council (GSEC) and the College of Education at Purdue invite submissions for the Fourteenth Annual Graduate Student Educational Research Symposium (AGSERS) to be held Thursday, March 26, 2020 in the Stewart Center. This year’s theme, "Education Uprising: Challenging the Status Quo", highlights the central role of education in questioning dominant power structures and improving society. We extend an invitation to students from all departments at Purdue University with research related to education to submit to present in one of the three formats outlined below.
Formats:
There will be three formats that presenters can use to share their work: as poster presentations or three-minute thesis presentations, which will be judged (for the Best Poster and Best Three-Minute Thesis awards), or as roundtable presentations, which will not be judged. Please review detailed information regarding presentation formats below and on our website.
Formats
GSEC will be in touch regarding an informational workshop on creating three-minute thesis, poster, and roundtable presentations in February or early March.
3-minute ThesisNew this year, three-minute thesis presentations will be held in a lecture style classroom at the beginning of the AGSERS festivities.
Order of presenters will be randomly assigned, with three minutes to present (computer with projection display available) and a brief question and answer session with the audience. Presenters should be able to catch and maintain the attention of the audience, while clearly and concisely summarizing their research in 180 seconds or fewer. Abstract max 200 words. |
Roundtables
The roundtable session is a 60 minute session which will allow presenters who have a start to their research, but still have questions, an opportunity to gain insight from colleagues.
This is a session where you can discuss your area of research with others who may be able to guide your next steps or provide feedback. The format for this session includes a brief overview of your research interest area, a concise description of your proposed study or research line, followed by a discussion. During the discussion you can pose questions, ask for advice or discuss alternate methods with those in attendance. |
Posters
All posters should be set up by 10:30 a.m. to allow judges to view posters
Poster sessions combine graphic display of materials with the opportunity for individualized, informal discussion of the research throughout a 60-minute session. Presenters will create a poster to display during the session and attendees will walk around the session viewing posters. Be prepared to summarize your poster, expand on elements of your poster, and answer questions. It is suggested you bring business cards or a handout for those interested in more information. Abstract max 200 words. |
Submitting Your Research
Presenters who have multiple projects can also choose to present during TWO of the poster, roundtable, and three-minute thesis sessions, but can only present once at each session. Presenters can enter completed work OR work in progress. All proposals should be submitted by 11:59PM on Saturday, February 29st, 2020. Secure your spot today!
