Tutorials will be held March 23, 2009
Dear GSAW Tutorial Instructor,
Full and half-day tutorials are being held on March 23, the day before the regular workshop program begins. Please read the following guidelines very carefully. They will help you in assembling your proposal, producing charts, and successfully presenting them at the workshop.
Abstract Submission: Submit a proposal to gsaw@aero.org for instructive tutorials on topics related to the GSAW2009 theme and focus issues by November 10, 2008. Tutorial proposals must contain the following information:
1. Tutorial title
2. Names and affiliations of the instructor(s)
3. Address, email, and telephone number of the instructor(s)
4. A description of the tutorial including a detailed course outline and technical abstract (three pages maximum)
5. Tutorial length (full or half day)
6. What the participants should expect to learn
7. Description of intended participants and prerequisite knowledge
8. Expected/desired number of participants
9. List of materials to be provided by the instructors
10. Biography of the instructor(s) (100-200 words)
11. If the tutorial or an earlier version has been given before, please indicate the event, date and contents.
The GSAW Program Committee will review your submission and notify you of your acceptance or nonacceptance on December 15, 2008.
Tutorial Chair: If accepted, the Tutorial Chair will be contacting you soon to discuss the information below and to act as your liaison to the conference. Please ensure that you understand the guidelines detailed here and address any questions you may have to your Session Chair or to gsaw@aero.org.
Advertising: If accepted, the tutorial description and the instructor(s) biography will be posted on the GSAW Web site and emailed to potential registrants. Remember that tutorials must be educational in nature, rather than the marketing of specific products, services, or programs.
Final Submittal: Prior to March 2, 2009 email an electronic copy of your tutorial charts to the Tutorial Chair and gsaw@aero.org. These materials must be copy-ready. We will produce copies for attendees up to 150 pages.
Tutorial Release and Consent: Tutorial instructors will receive a Tutorial Release and Consent Form that must be signed and returned to us by March 2, 2009. The form can be faxed to 310-563-2432 Attention: GSAW2009.
Tutorial Clearance and Copyright: Please ensure there is no classified information in your presentation! Note that foreign nationals will be in attendance at the workshop. Since your organization may have concerns about security or proprietary information, check to see if your briefing charts need to be cleared for publication. You should begin the clearance process as soon as possible to ensure you do not miss any deadlines. GSAW personnel are not responsible for verifying the classification level of your presentation.
The author of the tutorial materials retains all copyrights and publication rights to the presentation materials. Tutorial materials will only be distributed to those who attend the session and to select GSAW Program and Administrative Committee members. The material will not appear on the Proceedings CD-ROM or Web site.
Resources: An Intel-based notebook computer containing Windows XP, Office 2003, CD-ROM, and USB port will be provided. A computer projector will be available.
Tutorial Format: Each half-day tutorial will consist of two 95 minute segments separated by a 20 minute break. For full-day tutorials, lunch will be held from 11:30am to 1pm.
Charts produced by the PC version of Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 or 2003 are preferred. If you produce your charts in PowerPoint 2007, please save it in the 2003 format. If you require some other application to view your charts, please contact us well in advance of the March 2 deadline. In creating your slides, note that the presentation room is large and you should consider this in your selection of fonts, diagram size, etc. As a minimum, a 20-point font is recommended.
Honorarium: Instructors will receive $45 per registrant for a half-day session and $90 for a full-day session. One free registration to the general workshop will be provided to the instructor per half-day of instruction. This is not transferable.
Check-in: There will be a check-in desk in the main lobby of the hotel. Please check-in and obtain a badge. We use the check-in list to send you the CD-ROM after GSAW. There are no special security or escort requirements.
Registration: Registration can be completed on-line at http://csse.usc.edu/gsaw. We will be publishing a list of attendees.
Agenda: The GSAW2009 overview agenda will be posted at http://csse.usc.edu/gsaw. We will send you a message when the detailed agenda is available, and ask you to check it and let us know if any updates are necessary. If you are unable to access it, please let us know.
Hotel Reservations: Hotel info can be found at http://csse.usc.edu/gsaw.
