The purpose of the SignWriting Symposium Online is to bring people together to share SignWriting projects, not only during the Live Presentation July 18-21, 2016, but also in a Symposium Web Archive <http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/authors.html> that will remain on the web for future generations.


2016 CALL FOR PAPERS

Submit Abstract Title & Category by May 4th, 2016

Submit One-Page Abstract <http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/2016/Call_For_Papers.html#Abstracts2016> by June 8, 2016

Submit Presentation <http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/2016/Call_For_Papers.html#Presentations2016> by July 6, 2016

Online live presentation: July 18-21, 2016

There are no limits to the amount of presentations one author can submit. Feel free to submit as many as you wish.

Because we can only present a few hours each day online during the four days of the Symposium on July 18-21, we do not know how many of your presentations can be accepted as online presentations. If there is not enough time to present all of your submissions, it is still good to submit them to us. We can talk about which presentations are more important to you, if a choice has to be made, but still present your other presentations on a web page, so they will still get exposure and remain on the web. Your work is valuable to all SignWriting users and will become web pages no matter what, with or without live presentations.

SYMPOSIUM LIVE ONLINE
You are welcome to join us live on the Symposium dates: July 18-21, 2016, on the web.

We will provide a schedule of online events, and information on how to use the software to present online, if you wish to participate live. But there are no requirements to present live. Your written papers, slide presentations and video presentations will represent your work, with or without your live participation.

Before the presentation deadline, we will announce how to post your presentations on the web directly.

We look forward to reading and viewing your work with SignWriting, and to possibly meet you in July 2016 online!
