> 4 to 5 participants) on topics related to the scholarly and/or  
> pedagogical aspects of the conference's themes, "Gender in World  
> History" and "The Pacific in World History." The Program Committee  
> encourages mixed panels composed of K-12 teachers, university  
> professors, and independent scholars in which cutting-edge  
> scholarship is presented and then discussed as to how it might be  
> introduced into the classroom, as well as panels devoted to  
> research in progress and sessions dealing with the current  
> scholarship of "big issues" in world history and how these issues  
> might be brought to the classroom. The committee also invites  
> proposals for sessions in which all papers and commentary have been  
> posted on the WHA website in advance and the entire session
> is devoted to open discussion of the issues raised.
>
> Priority will be given to full panel submissions, but individual  
> papers will be considered, and if accepted will be placed into  
> panels put together by the Program Committee. Papers and proposed  
> panels that do not fit into the conference themes will be  
> considered and might be accepted, as space allows.
>
> Each proposal should include: a 250-word abstract of each paper, a  
> curriculum vitae for each participant, and a statement noting how  
> each paper makes an original contribution to scholarship or  
> pedagogy. Proposals must be submitted using the forms and  
> guidelines available at www.thewha.org
>
> Guidelines for panel organizers, paper presenters, commentators,  
> and chairs are posted at www.thewha.org and should be read with  
> care and followed. Please note the strict 20-minute time limit for  
> paper presentations.
>
> DEADLINE FOR PROPOSALS: 15 January 2010. Due to the need for early  
> notification and travel planning, no proposal will be accepted  
> after the deadline. Presenters must register for the conference by  
> 1 May 2010 to be included in the program.
