Call for Proposals The National Association for Kinesiology and Physical Education in Higher Education (NAKPEHE) invites your participation in the 2012 national conference in San Diego, CA on January 4th-7th. For the past couple of years, academia has faced a variety of challenges (i.e., increasing retention rates, seeking external funding sources, facilitating multi-disciplinary approaches). The 2012 conference theme “Flourishing in a Contemporary University Culture” seeks to explore how people, programs, and institutions have addressed those challenges in the areas of teaching, scholarship and service.

We invite you to submit a program proposal sharing how you, your program or institution has addressed one of the following areas:

•  Globalization
•  Entrepreneurial
•  Multidisciplinary
•  Diversity, Inclusiveness, and Equality
•  Retention (program, faculty, students)
• Technology (student & faculty technical & information literacy, distance learning).

Deadline for proposals is October 14th.  In addition to conference papers, there are opportunities for doctoral poster presentations and a Young Scholar Presentation.  If you’re not familiar with NAKPEHE, it is an organization for professionals in higher education.

Its purpose is to foster leadership in teaching, administration, policy, preparation for the professions and scholarship. This mission is facilitated through interdisciplinary ideas, concepts and initiatives related to the role of kinesiology and physical education, while valuing diverse social, cultural and personal perspectives.
