Call for Paper Proposals for the 2007 Fellows Workshop

The 2007 Fellows Workshop is being convened by Young Kim and D.P.S. Bhawuk. All interested Fellows and Associate Fellows are invited to submit a paper proposal.

Proposals should be 1400-1500 words in length (excluding references, tables, figures, and appendices) and submitted electronically to both Young Kim (youngkim@ou.edu) and D.P.S. Bhawuk (bhawuk@hawaii.edu ) by November 15, 2006.

To maintain the common thrust of the Workshop theme and level of intellectual consistency and cohesion across papers, the following considerations are among the criteria that will be employed to assess the suitability of proposed Workshop papers.

1. Relevance to the Workshop theme: Given the broad domain suggested by the theme, (Globalization and Diversity) the paper must clearly identify the main focus of the proposed paper and articulate its directe and substantive relevance to the Workshop theme.

2. Key issues/questions being addressed: The proposal must include the specific theoretical and/or applied -practical issues/question (e.g., education, training) the author authr(s) attempt to address with respect to the paper's focal phenomenon.

3. Brief literature review: All Proposals, including those that mainly address applied-practical issues, must identify at least some of the pertinent theories and research evidence.

4. Knowledge claims: The proposal must include a set of knowledge claims that the author(s) seek to make with respect to the key issues/questions addressed in the paper. This information should accompany an explanation clarifying the of the author's knowledge claims and their potential theoretical and/practical significance.
