[AISWorld] Extended Deadline - AMCIS 2020 PDS, Panels, and TREOs

[amcis 2020]

Dear Colleagues,



The deadline for submitting AMCIS 2020 PDS, Panels, and TREOs has been
extended until Monday, April 27th at 5 pm MST.



*Professional Development Symposia (PDS)* offer the opportunity for
creative, multi-way conversations, and have the potential to offer a
positive impact on the professional development of participants from
different regions, SIGs, chapters, career stages, or demographic
backgrounds. The PDS chairs encourage anyone interested in organizing a PDS
to submit a proposal to the closest relevant track. Proposals involving
cross-SIG dialog or collaboration may be submitted to the “General Topics”
mini-track within the *Advances in Information Systems Research* Track.
Please be aware, each track is limited to only one PDS. Proposals can be
quite brief, but should provide an outline sufficient for the track
reviewer to be able to make a recommendation on its applicability,
likelihood of drawing an audience, and suitability. Some indication of
likely authors and presenters is needed.



*Panels *provide an opportunity for a group of researchers to explore a
topic or focus of interest in a panel format, typically involving a panel
moderator (who poses several questions related to the topic) and three to
four expert contributors with alternative views or perspectives on the
topic. Depending upon the topic, the experts can be drawn from academia
and/or from industry.  Of particular interest are panel submissions that
are related to the conference theme, although panel proposals on other
relevant topics are also welcome. The panel co-chairs are willing to work
with panel submitters to help them develop provocative ideas into strong
proposals.



*Technology Research, Education, and Opinion (TREO) Talks* sessions will
provide attendees a platform to present their research ideas, IT/IS
education ideas, or opinion papers covering any area of the Information
Systems (IS) or Information Technology (IT) fields. Each TREO Talk author
will present their Talk, followed by a Q&A discussion session with the
audience. TREO submissions are in the form of a one-page abstract (approx.
500 words) that will be editorially-reviewed to ensure that they are IT/IS
related, appropriate in nature, and of sufficient quality.



We look forward to receiving your submissions.


Sincerely,


Sue Brown, Kathy Chudoba, and Kelly Fadel
