2001 CCJA workshops for Washington, D.C.
A Capital Oddyssey
Washington, D.C., to host AEJMC/CCJA Aug. 5-8
The Community College Journalism Association will be featured prominently at the 2001 convention of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communications on Aug. 5-8 in Washington, D.C., by scheduling a mega teaching poster session and participating in several panels and mini-plenary programs.
Last year’s "Great Ideas For Teaching" (GIFT) panel, co-sponsored by the Small Programs Interest Group (SPIG), debuted successfully at the Phoenix convention and will be back by popular demand in the form of a teaching poster session.
GIFT has become CCJA’s signature panel at the annual convention and the poster session is designed as a host for a marketplace of teaching ideas from the world’s best journalism educators. A "call for innovative teaching tips" has been issued and includes details and criteria for participating in the GIFT poster session. Entry forms and more information may be requested through [email protected].
