Who can participate as a delegate in the conference?
The TR conference in Nagpur (14-15 September 2017) is primarily meant for any teacher of English (or teachers teaching other subjects through English) who have conducted or keen to learn about conducting classroom based research. It hopes to popularise teacher research as a valid and valuable strand of exploring and understanding our own work as teachers. So, come along and join us if you want to share your studies or if you feel interested in finding out how any teacher can also be a researcher!! No previous training or experience of research needed!!
Who can present in the conference?
Anybody!! If you have tried to explore any aspect or practical concern from your own work, your classroom, your learners or your life as a teacher, come and share with us. We welcome all kinds of presentations - papers, posters, short narratives, video clips, powerpoint slide shows and many others - provided they are not longer than 15 minutes. We are NOT looking for conventional "research paper presentations" usually found in conferences!
