Call for Proposals

We invite you to submit a proposal for a 45-minute session at this gathering of extraordinary minds at the Four Points Sheraton, Bakersfield.


Proposals Deadline: Friday, March 22, 2024

This professional development event provides college and high school educators with the opportunity to learn and share our teaching successes with one another. As a dedicated professional, you have developed and refined many instructional strategies and materials that have benefited you and, more importantly, your students. In sharing one or more of these approaches, you will assist your colleagues in their quest to enhance student academic success.

Topic Ideas: First-Year Experience, Basic Skills, English-as-a-Second-Language, Technology in the Classroom, Responding to Papers, Teaching Research, Reading Rhetorically, Critical Thinking, Learning Disabilities, Coping with Student Attitudes, or any topic related to teaching composition, literature, or ESL. Panel presentations, especially with faculty from other campuses, are well-received by BBC participants.
