[SIGCIS-Members] Fwd: Society for the History of Technology, Call for Open Panel Proposals, Albuquerque 2015

[Andrew Russell]

Hi everyone - 

Many of you may have seen the message below, SHOT’s call for proposals for Open Sessions for the annual meeting in Albuquerque on October 8-11 2015.  SHOT is encouraging creative and/or provocative proposals for these Open Sessions - especially sessions that can bring history into conversation with other disciplines.  For more information, see below and http://www.historyoftechnology.org/call_for_papers/2015_submit_unconventional.html <http://www.historyoftechnology.org/call_for_papers/2015_submit_unconventional.html>.

Please feel free to write to me directly if you have an idea that you think SIGCIS could propose.  And, as always, feel free to use the SIGCIS list to bounce ideas around…  

Finally, keep in mind that this is the first of many opportunities to propose panels or papers for the meeting in Albuquerque - both for the main SHOT meeting on Friday and Saturday as well as for the Sunday SIGCIS workshop.  

Thanks!

Andy

>  
> The Program Committee reviews and approves Open Session proposals that show promise of quality and feasibility, notifying applicants by February 2, 2015. Accepted applicants then become the session organizer. 
>  
> The approved Open Sessions descriptions, along with organizer contact information, will be widely publicized in the official SHOT Annual Meeting Call for Papers in late January. Those with an interest in a given panel will then contact the Open Session organizer.
>  
> Open Session organizers will then assemble full panel sessions and submit them to the Program Committee by the end of the regular call for papers on March 31, 2015.  The Program Committee will review the resulting Open Sessions panels for quality and adherence to SHOT standards of gender, geographic, and institutional diversity with an assumption of inclusion in the final Annual Meeting program.
