If you can attend only one Education Conference in 2010, Here are Six Reasons You Should Plan to Attend the 2010 FELC Faculty Development Summit!
- The exciting program lineup planned for 2010 is based on the great feedback from those who attended and sponsored the 2009 FELC Faculty Development Summit.
- There will be a limited number of high quality Pre-Summit Master Classes that focus primarily on teaching culinary arts and hospitality education.
- The first day of the Summit is built around two workshops conducted by Anthony Gregorc, who conceived of the Mind Styles Model, who will shed new light on your understanding of teaching and learning (Dr. Gregorc’s bio)
- We will once again issue a call for refereed and non-refereed proposals for posters, standup presentations, panel discussions, and roundtables in order to provide peer-to-peer presentations to our learning community. A great way to build up your vita, too!
- Compete in, or help judge, the second annual FELC Ultimate Teaching Competition™
- Registration for the conference and host hotel includes complimentary food and beverages throughout the Summit!
