Conferences are one of the cornerstones of being an academic researcher. For many early career scholars such as graduate students, there is a lot to learn about conferences. Which ones should you attend? How do you plan out your days? What are effective ways to make connections with others?

In this virtual session organized by the SEEDS Graduate Student Committee (GSC), we will provide a discussion space for attendees to explore these kinds of questions and more. We will have upper-level graduate students with whom you can engage in conversation to learn about their experiences at conferences. We will primarily facilitate semi-structured small group discussion so that you can have a more direct environment to learn with and from one another.

This event is open to anyone, but is especially relevant for 1st- and 2nd-year graduate students and others who may have little to no experience attending science education conferences.

A zoom link will be email to registered participants in advance of the session.
