Volunteer Moderator
Overview
This option is designed for those who wish to actively participate in the conference but who are not involved in any of the other session types/roles. Do not choose this option if you are presenting a paper or serving as a colloquy speaker or breakfast roundtable leader.
Moderators are primarily responsible for introductions, keeping the time, and alerting presenters of remaining minutes, as well as managing the open discussion period. They are expected to maintain an atmosphere conducive to open and collegial discussion of ideas. Moderators are not discussants. However, each moderator is responsible for making a brief introduction (1 minute) of each paper. Paper presenters are responsible for sending the moderator an electronic copy of their paper by March 1, 2010.
