Partner Conferences Committee

Dear TODOS colleagues,

TODOS has been invited to contribute to the 2024 NCTM Annual Meeting and Exposition in Chicago, Illinois, September 25-28, 2024, by accepting up to four 60-minute sessions and two 75-minute gallery workshops.

A proposal for the TODOS Strand should be consistent with the mission of TODOS and address at least one of the TODOS goals (https://www.todos-math.org/mission-goals for mission and goals).

If you would like to be considered for the TODOS Strand, then:

  1. Please input your proposal on the NCTM website, http://www.nctm.org/speak;  
  2. Copy and paste your proposal into a Word document at the confirmation stage;
  3. Save the confirmation email that you receive from NCTM; you will need it to access your proposal after submission;
  4. Transmit the copy of your proposal to Bernard E. Frost, TODOS Partner Conferences Committee Chair, as an attachment at [email protected] by Friday, September 29, 2023. 

The TODOS Partner Conferences Committee will review the proposals for the TODOS Strand and will notify you regarding your status for the strand in early November 2023.

The TODOS Partner Conferences Committee may suggest edits to your proposal to help clarify or strengthen your title and description. Once your proposal has been selected for the TODOS strand, you may not change the type of session because of the types of slots allocated to us. The NCTM Program Committee will schedule the chosen presentations.

If you miss the TODOS strand deadline of September 29, you may still submit a proposal directly to NCTM for general consideration by the NCTM Program Committee until October 2, 2023. Please note that selected speakers (lead and co-presenters) will need to pay respective registration fees and arrange for their own travel, subsistence, and housing expenses. We hope to receive many excellent proposals for the TODOS strand so that we can offer very strong equity sessions to attendees. Please send your proposal by September 29, 2023.
