SUBMIT AN ABSTRACT

The 2024 Program Planning Committee invites abstracts for 45-minute Education Instructional Sessions.

Definition of an Education Instructional Session: The purpose of a 45-minute Educational Instructional Session is to instruct attendees on a specific topic in an interactive discussion format. The exact format for the session is free to choose by the session leader(s), as long as not more than one-half of the time is being used for formal presentation, and the rest of the time is used for interaction, active learning, and discussion (breakout rooms can be used). The Program Committee highly encourages multi-institutional and inter-professional submissions, submissions from schools of medicine, pharmacy, and dentistry, and presenter-teams consisting of junior and senior faculty.

Criteria for review:

• Importance/Significance of the Topic: Does the topic of the session address a significant issue?
• Appropriateness of Topic: Is the topic of the abstract session appropriate for the ABE
  Virtual Summit? Does the session address an issue that will be of interest to attendees at the Virtual Summit?
• Approach: Does the proposed session adequately address the stated issue?
• Clarity: Is the session well thought out and clearly presented in the abstract?
• Plan to Promote Discussion/Interaction: Does the session present a clear and adequate 
  plan to promote discussion and interaction among attendees?
• Generalizability/Transferability: Can information learned at the session be transferred to other settings or institutions?
• Qualifications of Presenters: Do the presenters appear to be well qualified to lead the session?

The 2024 Program Planning Committee invites abstracts for 10-minute Education Instructional Sessions.

This can include but is not limited to innovations in instructional methods, curriculum development, technology, student assessment, professional development, student support, or leadership. The Program Committee highly encourages submissions from schools underrepresented in the ABE (pharmacy and dentistry) and junior faculty. Submissions that are not selected for this oral presentation will be invited to present a poster.
