Blizzard Proposal
Blizzard Presentation Submission
A Blizzard Presentation is the Canadian equivalent to a lightning talk and is named in honour of the snow visited upon the WCCCE attendees in Calgary.
Individuals will be given 5 minutes to present on any topic of potential interest to the WCCCE community. For example, this would be a great way for you to tell us about:
- work in progress
- an interesting assignment
- things you learned from the pandemic that could inform teaching going forward
- new teaching tools,
- your opinions on some pedagogical topic
- new course development
- a study you would like to do.
- a project where you would like to partner with others
We are asking everyone interested to submit a short description (240 characters max, the length of a tweet) of what the presentation will be about. This will help us order the presentations and, if needed, decide who will get a slot. If you have multiple things you would like to present on but it would be impractical to combine them into one blizzard presentation you may submit multiple proposals.

As indicated above you will be given 5 minutes for your presentation. This timing will be strictly enforced (i.e. we will mute you when your time is up :-) To keep overhead light, the use of slides is optional. However, everyone must provide one slide in PowerPoint format saying who they are, their affiliation, the blizzard talk title, and, optionally, contact information.
