Call for 2013 MAC Panel Proposal
Dear MAC members:
Call for Panel Proposal
Deadline: October 1, 2012
Programming Chair: Yuki Fujioka, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>
It’s time to submit your panel proposals for the 2013 AEJMC National Convention in Washington, D.C. Please send your proposals via e-mail (as a Word document attachment) by October 1 to MAC’s Vice-Head/Programming Yuki Fujioka at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>
[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
Panel Type: These proposals can be either teaching, professional freedom and responsibility (PF&R) or invited research. At the end of this document, I include a description of what a teaching panel should contain, some general tips, and a sample research panel proposal (successfully programmed!)
Sponsorship: Please note that given a limited number of conference slots available for each division/interest group, the programmed panels will likely be co-sponsored (jointly sponsored by two divisions/ interest groups). So, just think and frame your idea in ways that will appeal to a broad audience (cutting across divisional lines). When proposing possible panelists, it is best to commit NO MORE THAN 3 individuals at this point so that other divisions may contribute one or more speakers. It is also wise to consider recruiting panelists locally (in DC areas or the states close to the area), of course if possible, for their convenience (time and travel etc). Note: MAC will not be providing funds for any panelists.
Proposal Format: All proposals should be one page in length (single-spaced) and include the
following:
(1) Panel Title: (Don’t make it so limited to MAC that no other group will want to cosponsor!)
(2) Panel Type: (TEACHING, PF&R, or RESEARCH panel)
(3) Panel Sponsorship: List other AEJMC divisions/interest groups for which this proposal
might prove relevant (again, most AEJMC panels are co sponsored across divisions/IGs)
(4) Description of Panel: Provide a succinct description paragraph form of the key issues or
subject matter to be addressed by the panelists.
(5) Possible Panelists [about 3]: Indicate individuals who would be appropriate participants for
this panel, including the name, affiliation and contact information for each. Also, please
indicate whether they have been contacted and committed to participate. If you plan to
recruit a local professional for the panel, indicate this as well.
(6) Moderator: This can be you or someone you nominate to moderate the panel.
(7) Contact Person: Include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and telephone
number as the contact person for this panel proposal.
I look forward to reading your proposals and ideas!
Yuki,
MAC Programming Chair
*****************GUIDELINES FOR TEACHINPANELS *************************
Each TEACHING PANEL should address one of the following FOUR general areas
identified by the AEJMC Standing Committee on Teaching Standards. Teaching panels
submitted to the MAC division should attempt to link these general areas to specific
pedagogical challenges and opportunities related toteaching diversity/multiculturalism.
1. Curriculum: the philosophy, design, and examination of issues, developments and trends in
the journalism curriculum. Examples include online media, web innovations, visual literacy,
intellectual property, interactive multimedia design, civic journalism, race and gender issues,
historical context,convergence, and ethics.
2. Leadership: the administrative and organizational efforts used to manage and improve the
evolution of the field of journalism and mass communication. Examples include unique
mentoring projects or activities, an examination of teaching accountability, credibility or
history, or exploring the future of teaching and learning in J-Schools.
3. Course Content and Methods: examining teaching techniques and strategies. Examples
include strategies on writing and rewriting, syllabus exchanges, distance learning
opportunities, developing handbooks and other teaching aids, using videos and other
technology in classrooms.
4. Assessment: weighing the effectiveness of journalism education. Examples include surveys
and reports on teaching effectiveness, seminars or workshopsto assess the state of the field in
general or more specific areas, various activities evaluating course content, textbooks,
journalism programs and syllabi.
******************************************************************************
**************** GUIDELINES FOR PF&R PANEL PROPOSALS ********************
Each year AEJMC’s PF&R Committee expects programming centered on professional freedom and responsibility in one or more of the FIVE areas targeted: 1) freedom of expression, 2) ethics, 3) media criticism & accountability, 4) racial, gender and cultural inclusiveness, or 5) public service.
*****************************************************************************
************** GENERAL TIPS FOR PANEL PROPOSAL WRITING *****************
If you are proposing a panel for the first time, these tips may be useful. In formulating your proposal keep in mind:
1) Relevance of the topic for the mission of the MAC Division
2) Recent programming to avoid repetition of topics
3) Diversity in the scope of panels (variety of angles, speakers, theoretical and methodological perspectives)
4) Availability of prospective speakers
5) Currency and transcendence of topics selected
6) Make the title attention-getting
*****************************************************************************
********************SAMPLE RESEARCH PANEL PROPOSAL ******************
AEJMC Panel Proposal
Division: Minorities and Communication
1) Title: Advancing Inter-ethnic and Interracial Communication Research among Latinos, Asian-Americans and African-Americans
2) Panel type: Research
3) Possible Co-sponsorship: MAC and Mass Communication and Society
4) Description of Panel:
A dominant trend in the study of minorities and communication has been to examine communicative practices and media representation of racial and ethnic minority groups in isolation or in exclusive relation to the white population—and often within a black/white binary that tends to overlook the complexities of a multicultural public sphere. This panel shifts the focus to stress the relevance of studying communication and media representation among Latinos, African-Americans and Asians with two main goals. First, panelists will share their current research on interethnic and interracial communication. A second objective of this panel is to discuss theoretical constructs, methodologies and broader frameworks of understanding--for instance, liberal multiculturalism as a dominant discourse, racial formation and public sphere, social scientific methods, media literacy, etc.--that would allow researchers to advance the study of communication across racializedminority groups.
5) Prospective Panelists (listed in alphabetical order):
Yuki Fujioka, Georgia State University.
Catherine Squires, University of Minnesota
Michael Thornton, University of Wisconsin, Madison
(6) Moderator/Chair: Ilia Rodriguez, New Mexico
(7) Contact Person: Ilia Rodriguez, Department of Communication & Journalism, MSCO3 2240, The University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, (505) 277-2103<tel:%28505%29%20277-2103>, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>
