Call for Proposals: British Council Going Global 2020 Conference for tertiary education leaders – London, UK.

Application Deadline: 22nd October 2019

Going Global provides an open forum for world education leaders – those in the non-compulsory education sector with decision making responsibilities – to debate issues surrounding global higher and further education, and to discuss collaborative solutions. We are therefore seeking innovative, agenda-setting proposals that will facilitate the sharing of knowledge and insights across borders.

Going Global welcome challenging perspectives and are especially interested to hear from thought leaders anticipating and driving future agendas.

WORKSHOP FACILITATOR

For Going Global 2020 we are looking for more interactive, audience-focused workshops which provide delegates with knowledge and tools to come away from the session knowing how to implement learning in their institutions. We are therefore seeking dynamic, engaging individuals who can lead these discussions around a topic of their choosing.

The workshop should last for two hours and thirty minutes and there will be a break for refreshments at the half-way point (After 75 Minutes). When assessing these proposals, we will be looking at the following:

• Learning styles/activitiesthat you will employ i.e. presentation, group discussion, pair exercise, small group exercise etc. (we encourage more than one style); • Choreography, this includes the session format and a breakdown of activitieswith approximate timings against each;
• Any materials you propose to use;
• Any pre-work you expect delegates to complete;
• Clear learning outcomes for the audience

POSTER PRESENTATION

• Successful poster presentation proposals will be invited to display for the duration of the conference;
• Poster presenters will have the opportunity to present their poster to conference delegates during the poster reception. Delegates will vote for the most innovative and engaging poster and the winner will also present their poster during the closing plenary;
• Presenting a poster is a fantastic opportunity to network and engage delegates in discussion around the theme of your poster;
• Posters can have either one or two presenters
