    > PROPOSAL GUIDELINES. OBTC formats include 30-minute catalyst sessions,

    > explore a single new idea, concept, or teaching approach. Longer
    > sessions generally take the form of a seminar, small group discussion,
    > hands-on activity, or teaching demonstration. The program will include
    > only sessions of 90 minutes or less.
    >
    > Proposals are also encouraged for sessions that may extend over more
    > than one day of the Conference. The OBTC, ?the premier teaching
    > conference in North America for management educators,? has traditionally
    > been characterized by highly interactive sessions rather than a more
    > passive lecture format; therefore, proposals that actively engage

    > designed for doctoral students and new/early career faculty are
    > especially welcome!

    > entirety in a CD-ROM format as a theme resource if the author(s) wish.
